The United Nations has issued a warning regarding the worsening humanitarian conditions in the Gaza Strip following heavy rainfall over the weekend. This severe weather has resulted in casualties, the displacement of thousands of families, and the loss of homes and possessions.
The UN Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs reported that a baby drowned due to flooding. Additionally, three children and a woman lost their lives when a sand dune collapsed onto tents housing displaced individuals.
The office highlighted that thousands of families have lost their shelters and belongings as a result of the rains. The United Nations and its partners continue to implement emergency interventions. These efforts include water removal, improving drainage systems, reinforcing displacement sites with sandbags, and repairing damaged homes as much as possible. Furthermore, they are delivering urgent assistance and supplies to affected families.
