Maybe it takes time for water to circulate? Also i have no idea how water systems work but i feel it might work without electricity, at least parts of it, just by using gravity.
Possibly. But Palestinians have also said that pipelines are damaged or destroyed by Israel’s bombing in all areas if Gaza.
So if water is going through then it’s sitting in huge tanks and not able to go through the pipelines to whichever houses/ buildings which are not yet rubble because of destroyed/ damaged pipes and no electricity to pump the water through any undamaged pipes.
So they probaby need to collect the water via water trucks. But there’s no petrol either.
They could make the dangerous walk to the water tanks, but Israel has been bombing south Gaza as well, where everyone from northern Gaza was told to go.
Usually if you want it gravity-fed you need water towers to generate the needed pressure for the immediate area. Then you also likely still need some pumps to cover more area. The pumps don’t work when the power is out, thus very low water pressure or straight up no water.

The water also won’t flow when the pipes have been bombed into scrap.
