During light rail construction in Givat Shmuel, NTA workers accidentally damaged a main water pipe at Israel Square, leaving many residents across the city without water for hours. The malfunction was repaired and water supply is expected to return within the next hour. The municipality worked with residents and provided water to parents, the helpless, and the elderly. A resident named Noy described the uncertainty: "The municipality told us: 'If you have drinking water, use it; if not, we'll bring you water bottles. Other than that, we have no timeline for fixing the malfunction and you'll have to manage.'" Another resident said he had to go out and get water himself: "I went to the supermarket to buy six-packs of water so we'd have some at home."
