To Doug Wills, Managing Editor, The Independent:

We are writing to demand that The Independent retracts a story that falsely accused Israel of deliberately cutting off drinking water to Palestinians during the Muslim holy month of Ramadan. A burst pipe — quickly fixed by Israel — was the reason for the temporary shortage. There was not a shred of evidence that Israel in any way deliberately blocked water supplies. The premise of the article was based on unsubstantiated Palestinian claims. While The Independent references Israeli government denials, why was this smear deemed newsworthy in the first place?

We demand that The Independent retracts this libelous and factually incorrect story.
