Many red puddles on both sides of the Dead Sea!

Arab Weather also revealed that satellite images have been monitoring for a long time many similar ponds and lakes that bear the red color on both sides of the Dead Sea , especially on the Palestinian side. They are often salty and prone to collapse when pressed.

The reasons for the red color of the pool water in the Dead Sea:

As for the reasons for the red color of the water of the ponds or small lakes around the Dead Sea , former Minister of Water Dr. Hazem Al-Nasser attributed it to three possible main reasons:

• Mixing fresh water with sea water of extreme salinity.
• Dunaliella algae growth due to high temperatures and light intensity in the area.
• The possibility that this water is of artificial origin and not nature.

He pointed out that there is a small possibility that the origin of this water is industrial, stressing the need to conduct the necessary chemical and biological analyzes to find out more details.
