Israel declared Wadi Qana an Israeli Nature Preserve

“Al-Tanour spring in Wadi Qana is overlooked by an Israeli settlement rising in the background.

Qassem Mansour, a 66-year-old farmer, indicates that one of the main problems in the area is securing sufficient water for agricultural work.

“We use the springs, but we have noticed a decrease in the quantity, and Israelis prevent us from making any sub-channels from the springs to our lands,” he told The Electronic Intifada.

According to Israeli human rights group B’Tselem, the wadi’s springs have been damaged by Israeli drilling since the 1970s.”
