(IsraelNN.com) The UN children's agency, UNICEF, says it plans to begin installing two desalinization stations in Rafiah and Khan Younis, in southern Gaza. The plants will be capable of producing a total capacity of 50 cubic meters of drinkable fresh water per hour.

Equipment for the two installations was shipped to Gaza last Thursday through the Kerem Shalom crossing and the plants are expected to start functioning in two months. UNICEF says it has plans to install more wells, rehabilitate water and sewage networks, and install more desalinization plants in Gaza.
