Israeli settlers have diverted water from a spring in the West Bank to fill a tourist pool, NDTV reports. The spring served as a lifeline for Fasayil, a village in the fertile Jordan Valley. Palestinians there have depended on it for generations for food and employment, while also using it to supplement irregular Israeli supplies to household taps.
