Water famine hits Jerusalem amid citys water crisis

The drought reduced from Solomons Hills near Hebron, 20 miles away, delivering about 60 gallons for 10 000 residents. Private cisterns offer little relief as no reserves exist. Special trains are deployed from Ladd fifty miles away to cart essential water to the famine stricken city.
