Israeli settlers have dumped waste into the al-Auja spring, north of the Wast Bank city of Jericho, to deprive Palestinians of potable water, the al-Baidar organisation for defending the rights of the Bedouins told the Palestinian news agency Wafa.
Dumping of toxic waste posed a threat to the health of residents in the short and long term, as well as an imminent environmental danger, in violation of international law.
