Heavy Rains Flood Tents Housing Displaced Palestinians in Gaza Amid Aid Challenges
Heavy rains from the first winter storm flooded around 70,000 tents sheltering displaced Palestinians in Gaza, causing injuries, collapsed walls, and rising water levels. Rescue teams received about 1,500 distress calls amid fuel shortages and damaged equipment hampering response efforts. Gaza authorities blamed Israel's blockade for restricting shelter and reconstruction materials, while Israel's military agency highlighted coordination with international groups to improve conditions. Vulnerable groups face heightened risks as flooding worsens amid ongoing humanitarian challenges.
