This assessment has been conducted based on available satellite imagery, ancillary data and remote sensing analysis for the period 7 October - 15 February 2024 without field validation. Agricultural well data from 2021 was used as baseline data due to limited availability for data collection in the area of interest and time constraints related to the nature of the report. This assessment was conducted by the Geospatial Unit at the Land and Water Division (NSL) of FAO and will be further complemented with additional field assessment and use of very high-resolution imagery The boundaries and names shown, and the designations used on these map(s) do not express any opinion whatsoever on the part of FAO concerning the legal status of any country, territory, city or area or of its authorities, or concerning the delimitation of its frontiers and boundaries.

Utilising a baseline agricultural wells layer and very high-resolution satellite imagery, FAO conducted an assessment of the number of agricultural wells damaged in the Gaza Strip as a result of the recent conflict escalation. The number of damaged agricultural wells was calculated based on their location within a 15-meter radius area around a damaged site. The damage was estimated using multiple Sentinel-1 SAR imagery and overlaying the agricultural wells layer with the damage layer (damage proxy map) from 30 April 2025.
