It’s not sanitary, depletes water tables under the earth that naturally filter water as it sinks through the soil, and is not efficient for collection if servicing a large population.
The West Bank is nominally run by the Palestinian Authority. However it is occupied by the Israeli Army and Israeli settlers are using colonial age tactics to push out the Palestinians with the backing of the Army. One of those tactics is to claim an area that includes a water source and dam it.
I mean, you’re right that there is an organization terrorizing West Bank. They are also terrorizing Gaza. And a lot of what they are doing serves as pro-Hamas propaganda.
Who knows? Maybe someone should ask the Israeli government instead of assuming without facts.
If you ask me, I think it’s to control where people can drink safe quality water so they can spend less money on humanitarian aid curing easily preventable stagnating water-bourne diseases and shift that same money over to war production against Hamas instead.
I think Hamas wants Israel to stretch its defense budget as thin as possible by deliberately creating humanitarian disasters in Gaza so that Israel can’t spend it on military equipment against Hamas.

OP is simply spreading pro Hamas propaganda
How is concern about basic human right a pro-hamas propaganda now?
According to the Anything Goes Act of 2022, you are allowed to say whatever horseshit you want and it is a legit argument.
Candy bars? Nuclear death sticks from planet Zorb
Want fries with that? You’re an antisemite. That’ll be $5.87
Collecting rainwater? You’re a Hamas agent and everybody knows it
Hamas is only in Gaza. This is a West Bank thing where the Israeli government imposing it’s own civil laws is a war crime.
Then replace Hamas with whatever insert-terrorist-organization-here.
That’s not how this works. You don’t get to just imagine AQ running a place.
Forgive the ignorance, I know nothing of the West Bank. Please elaborate.

So what’s the reasoning for why Isreal gets to impose that policy on Palestinians?
