An Israeli researcher reported the existence of untapped water resources beneath the Judean Desert. The Judea Group Aquifer was mapped out by Leehee Laronne Ben-Itzhak, a master’s student at Hebrew University in Jerusalem who released her findings this week. Ben-Itzhak’s supervisor, professor Haim Gvirtzman, noted that the water could bring benefits to the West Bank.
