Earthquake while at or near maximum water level would be most likely cause of failure: And they have have earthquakes across that region ever since the walls of Jericho fell down. 8<)

Pick a wrecked sluice gate. Build a casemate behind it. Blow it open the sluice gate, them make an appropriate size opening in the casemate. Keep the water going through until somebody can repair the remaining gates.
