And last month, when I checked in with the Palestinian Water Authority, at least one connection point with Israel was flowing again, and one main desalination plant was reconnected to Israel's power grid. And so that was helping. Okay. But this week, as you mentioned, Israel cut off the electricity to that desalination plant.

So it's very possible that the water situation could turn dire again very quickly. I will say that Marwan and his colleagues at the PWA, they do have a six-month plan that they have started implementing during this ceasefire. Whether they can continue to implement that plan is really up in the air at this moment.

Trump's vision is a Middle Eastern Riviera, as he called it. And in that plan, he talks about displacing all of the Palestinians that live in Gaza and having them get absorbed by Arab countries and then the U.S. taking ownership of Gaza. So, you know, presumably then whoever Trump wants to contract with will come in and rebuild Gaza.

However, last week, Arab countries came together in Egypt and they agreed on a plan that could potentially include the water authority. They say their plan will cost $53 billion. It would be one that calls for rebuilding Gaza in a way that doesn't displace Gazans. And it calls for a Palestinian government to manage the rebuilding. So that vision, very different from Trump's vision.

You know, Marwan has been building and rebuilding the water infrastructure for decades. You know, one of the reasons that I was interested in following him was that his personal life and his career really kind of let you see the track of what happened in Gaza since 1993.
