With the recent high temperatures in the area and the failure to meet the needs of the residents of al-Arishah camp, the camp administration decided to coordinate with the supporting organizations and after the villagers were asked to dig 3 water wells to meet the daily needs of the displaced except the drinking water that comes to the camp by tankers .

The residents of the camp had previously told ANHA agency about their needs and the lack of water in the camp and their need to open these lines.

The citizen Khalif al-Weka said "We were suffering from a shortage of washing water because we used drinking water for washing, but now that the wells have been dug, the water will be supplied and there will be no shortage of drinking water."

 For his part, Ahmed Al Ali said: "The water tank comes every morning the tank fills about 100 liters and this amount is not enough for something, which leads to problems among the displaced, but this step will reduce those problems."

Asma al-Zayed, a resident of the camp said "We have opened these lines for well water because the water supplied to us is no longer sufficient, as it led to the emergence of diseases inside the camp, and the drinking water was very little."
