Gaza (QNN)- The Israeli army on Saturday opened Israeli dams, making large amounts of rainwater to flood crops in agricultural lands in eastern Gaza. The Ministry of Agriculture said that the Israelis have deliberately opened Israeli dams, drowning approximately 1000 dunums of cultivated areas for wheat, barley, peas, cabbage, and cauliflower. The ministry said in a statement that the Israeli army opened the dams again, making large amounts of rainwater to flood agricultural lands in eastern Shuja'iyyeh, damaging its crops. The occupation state has opened its dams last week, drowning Gaza agricultural lands as well.
