Emergency water supply to affected villages in Jask begins: Governor

💬 Emergency water supply to affected villages in Jask begins: Governor 📌 Bandar Abbas, IRNA – Governor of Jask, Mohmmad Jamaleddini, says that the emergency water deliveries are underway in southern Iran after a US strike on a desalination plant cut off drinking water to around 10,000 people in Jask. Jamaleddini said on Saturday that the emergency water supply to 20 affected villages in Jask, with a population of around 10,000, has begun following the overnight attack by the United States on the desalination plant in Bunji, situated to the west of the port city of Jask in Iran’s Hormozgan province. ​ He added that water is being supplied from alternative sources, mobile tankers are being deployed, and all available resources have been mobilized, with a prediction that a stable water supply will be restored within a week at most. ​ Local authorities announced on Saturday that a US attack completely destroyed a seawater pumping station and a power transformer at the Bunji desalination plant. This incident raises serious concerns, as attacks on vital facilities like desalination plants—essential for civilian survival—are strictly prohibited under Article 54 of the Fourth Geneva Convention. 📲 ​
