Water Outage Halts Schooling in Negev Towns
Classes were suspended on Wednesday in all schools and kindergartens in the Negev towns of Shaqib al-Salam and Tel al-Sabi in southern Israel due to an ongoing water outage. The local councils announced the decision to protect the health and safety of students, children, and staff, citing the lack of suitable conditions for continuing the school day.
Both councils stated they are cooperating with relevant authorities to resolve the water supply issue and restore service as quickly as possible. They urged residents to follow official announcements for updates.
The report also noted that students in unrecognized villages began their school year on Tuesday, with a general strike looming.
