Displaced families in Gaza City’s makeshift camps are grappling with severe hardship from continuous heavy rains, which have intensified suffering in the war-ravaged enclave. The prolonged conflict has left infrastructure in ruins, and without prior warnings, even basic possessions have been ruined by the deluge. Beds, clothing, and essential items are completely drenched, forcing residents to spend sleepless nights in wet conditions, waiting for the storms to subside. With no permanent roofs overhead, the plight of Gaza’s inhabitants has reached a critical low. Ongoing crises have rendered drainage systems ineffective across the territory, leaving pools of water in shelters even after the rain stops. This stagnation raises serious concerns about outbreaks of infectious diseases, while forecasts of approaching winter add to the growing anxiety among the population. Despite these challenges, Palestinians remain resilient, immediately starting efforts to pump out accumulated water once showers ease. They are also working to cover fragile tents with plastic sheets or tarps for better protection. The recent ceasefire has allowed some increase in aid deliveries to Gaza, yet United Nations agencies and humanitarian groups emphasize that families continue to face acute shortages of food, medicine, and proper housing. Over 1.4 million people remain displaced, with experts warning that without urgent shelter upgrades, the coming cold months could bring even greater dangers.
