Wazzani
Al Wazzani (Al-Ouazzani〔http://maps.google.com/maps?q=Ouazzani,+Hasbaya,+Nabatieh,+Lebanon&hl=en〕), also known as Arab Louaize,〔Water Wars in the Middle East: A Looming Threat, Hussein A. Amery, The Geographical Journal, Vol. 168, 2002〕 is a small Lebanese village in the Hasbaya District of the Nabatieh Governorate, just north of the Israel-Lebanon border, on the banks of the Hasbani River. The village is located about 1 km from the Wazzani Spring, a major source of the Hasbani, which is a tributary of the Jordan River.〔(Wazzani Springs pump nearing completion )〕 The village has about 200 residents.〔
In 2001 the Lebanese government installed a small pumping station with a 10 cm bore near the village, to supply water to the village as well the nearby villages al-Teiba〔(Hariri complains against Israeli threats: Lebanon seeks to complete al- Wazzani project )〕 and Ghajar.〔(LA Times ) Over Israeli Objections, Lebanon Opens Pumping Station on River 29 March 2001〕 In March 2002 Lebanon also diverted part of the Hasbani to supply Wazzani village, an action that then Prime Minister of Israel, Ariel Sharon, said was a "casus belli" and could lead to war.〔(BBC ) 28 March 2002.

The pumping station was destroyed during the 2006 Lebanon War
