Water authority cracks down on water theft in Ain Al-Basha

Amman, July 5 (Petra) - Water Authority of Jordan (WAJ) caught on Sunday several homeowners in Ain Al-Basha illegally diverting water lines to fill tanker trucks. Authorities disconnected the illegal lines, removed the connections, and documented the violations to start legal proceedings.

WAJ warned it will not tolerate water theft that threatens public access, calling illegal use a major challenge for the sector.

Officials stated that joint enforcement will continue to protect resources and ensure fair distribution.
