Four million Libyans face imminent water shortage if new solutions are not implemented to tackle declining water, sanitation and health (WASH) conditions in the conflict-torn country, according to a 1 February UNICEF statement.
WASH conditions in Libya have deteriorated as a result of escalating violence and unrest following civil war and the killing of the country’s leader, Muammar Gaddafi in 2011. Recurring attacks on Libya s Great Manmade River systems have eliminated the use of around 190 wells across the country, and a lack of funding prevents them from being restored.
In the sanitation sector, 65 Percent of households and institutions are connected to cesspits – underground tanks which collect and store wastewater and sewage without processing or treating it – rather than public networks, resulting in contamination of underground reservoirs.
