The repeated Iranian attacks to #Kuwait’s power and #desalination plants are cruel and criminal.
The current US government’s unsteadiness and disdain for the rules-based-order makes the world increasingly dangerous for smaller states.

#Trump vows to hit more Iranian #infrastructure as nations seek to open #Hormuz
Trump threatened to extend attacks on #civilian infrastructure in #Iran after a #US strike cut a major highway bridge on Thursday, prompting a defiant response from Iran, which hit a #desalination #water plant in […]

The claim came as #Iran fired on targets across the region, setting Kuwait’s Mina al-Ahmadi #oil refinery one fire. The state-run #Kuwait Petroleum Corp said firefighters were working to control several blazes there.
Kuwait also said that an Iranian attack caused “material damage” to a […]

‘BREAKING: #Kuwait said an Iranian #attack damaged a #desalination plant.
The attack came after an oil refinery was hit by drones Friday morning.
About 90% of drinking water in Kuwait comes from desalination.’
#Kuwait News Agency: ‘The official spokesperson for the Ministry (of Electricity+Water), Ms. Fatima Hayat: One of the power generation+water #desalination stations was subjected to an #attack this dawn by the sinful Iranian aggression, resulting in material damage.’1/
BTW, the $1 Billion #desalination plant would burn #naturalgas to boil seawater into fresh water, accelerating climate change.
What happens if #Barakah and / or #Bushehr #nuclear power plants get hit ?
All Gulf #desalination plants (and, hence, Gulf state drinking water) would be at significantly increased risk.
#Iran
Attacking the water source for a civilization impacts their ability to survive. Iran has 💦 but some nations in the Gulf rely almost 90% on #desalination plants.
Targeting #Iranswater was a mistake and makes every Gulf nation a 🎯 for retaliation.
#USA isn’t impacted so what do they care? #cdnpoli

Trump threatens to 'blow up' all water desalination plants in Iran

Advances on large output #Desalination plants growth! Didn't know! Kuwait Bahrain,90% of #water comes from it, 86% Oman, 80% Israel, 70% Saudi Arabia. USA over 400 municipal desalination plants, primarily in FL, Cali, & Texas treat seawater, groundwater! share.google/images/5Jo0m... More needed
💧 #Desalination plants are an integral lifeline for #Gulf countries, allowing seawater to be converted into usable resources in an arid region.
Now, as the war in the #MiddleEast rages on, they are often targeted by air strikes, moves that could be considered war crimes.

Leave it to the dangerous ignorance of Trump to threaten to attack Iran's #desalination plants (of which they have almost none) while ignoring the actual vulnerability of the Gulf country's desalination plants (to which they are completely dependent).
Oh, and such attacks are a war crime.

Trump Truth Social post threatening "blowing up and completely obliterating.... all desalinization plants"
Apparently, there is no one close enough to Trump with the intelligence or guts enough to tell him that Iran doesn't rely on vulnerable #desalination plants: But Israel and the Gulf nations do.
Or to tell him that attacks on civilian #water systems are war crimes.
And because he’s doing so well in negotiations, #Trump issued a new threat to #Iran #civilian #infrastructure [a #WarCrime] if a ceasefire isn't reached 'shortly'
Trump on Monday threatened widespread destruction of Iran’s #energy resources & other vital infrastructure, including #desalination […]
Donald Trump is threatening to bomb Iran's desalination plants, power plants, and other civilian infrastructure if negotiations with the US don't go his way - this is getting seriously out of hand.

Threatening Iran's #desalination plants will worry his #Gulf allies, as #Iran will most likely target their's in retalliation. No water & no revenue, due to a closed #Strait, must be their worst nightmare.
#Trump claims he was not warned abt the potential results of his attack on #Iran. That’s also a lie. But they were predictable, anyhow, without much brain. Now, even an Iranian attack on the Gulf states' #seawater #desalination #plants can no longer be ruled out.

- What rules apply, and does it depend on who started the war?
- What are the protections for #civilians?
- Can political leaders be targeted?
- When can/can't power, #petroleum, or #desalination facilities be targeted?
- Can cluster munitions be used in populated areas?
... and many more.
#Iran had threatened to retaliate against the region’s vital #infrastructure, like #desalination facilities, if #Trump followed through.
Trump said he was holding off on carrying through his threat because talks aimed at ending the #war are going “very well.”
Trump’s announcement on social […]
#MrBoneSaw is even more stupid, vengeful and/or reckless than I thought. There’s still plenty possibilities for #Iran to destroy Saudi #oil fields, refineries, power & #desalination plants. If the last are destroyed or inoperable, then #SaudiArabia will collapse within a week.
While attacks on #electricity could hurt #Iran, they could be catastrophic for its Gulf neighbors, which consume around 5 times as much #power per capita.
Electricity makes their gleaming desert cities habitable, in part by powering the #desalination plants that produce 100% of the #water […]

👉 Innovative #desalination technologies such as #electrodialysis are used in the pilot plant. The results achieved this winter period demonstrate that the project goals can be met and that the concept represents an exciting and promising approach for sustainable water management.
