#1 The Turks did that during WWI to deny the Brits access to water at the various oases dotting the desert.

Either that or they would throw in a camel or a donkey. Killing a POW and using him to foul the water supply sort of kills two birds with one stone. I always wondered though if the Turks thought about what they would do if they retook the territory and needed water.
