SOUNDBITES: 0.1 SOUNDBITE (in Arabic) Husni Muhanna, Gaza Municipality spokesperson 0.2 SOUNDBITE (in Arabic) Rafiq Nweija, Gaza City resident STORYLINE: The Sheikh Radwan basin, originally designated to collect rainwater, has become a collection point for sewage after pumping stations and sewage networks were damaged during the war, according to Gaza Municipality. The municipality said eight sewage pumps and about 220,000 meters of sewage networks were destroyed, while only two pumps have been repaired. The damage has caused sewage to leak into streets and the sea, raising concerns over worsening pollution and its impact on residents and displaced people.
