Turkish Air Strikes Cut Off Water Supply to Over One Million in Northeast Syria

Turkish air strikes in drought-affected northeastern Syria have severed water and electricity supplies to over a million people, raising concerns of potential violations of international law. Attacks on critical infrastructure have worsened the humanitarian crisis following years of civil war and extreme drought. Residents in Hassakeh now rely on water deliveries from distant sources, but these are insufficient. Experts warn that Turkey’s military actions could constitute war crimes, while Turkish officials assert their operations target terrorist groups.
