Researchers have located official documentation that confirms Israel poisoned wells in Palestine during the 1948 Nakba. For decades, the truth of the ‘Cast Thy Bread’ operation had been hidden. While testimonies about Jewish troops sent to poison wells in Gaza and the West Bank, now it is confirmed by government documents as well. Poisoning wells was a way to guarantee Palestinian families could not access basic resources like clean water. Water access is a human right and poisoning water sources is a violation of those rights in the eyes of the United Nations.
