Health Ministry Advises Boiling Water in Karmiel After Contamination Detected
Israel's Ministry of Health has issued a directive for residents of Karmiel to boil all water before consumption, including for drinking, cooking, preparing medicine, and brushing teeth. The advisory comes after preliminary water sample tests yielded unsatisfactory results, indicating potential contamination.
The ministry clarified that the water remains safe for non-potable uses such as bathing and sanitation. The boil-water order will remain in effect until further notice, pending the results of ongoing tests and confirmation of water quality improvements.
Authorities are continuing to monitor the situation closely and will update the public as more information becomes available.
