Storm Worsens Gaza Crisis: Floods Kill 12, Displace Thousands

Heavy rains and floods have killed at least 12 people in Gaza, worsening the humanitarian crisis for displaced Palestinians. The storm inundated thousands of tents across the territory on Tuesday. Strong winds and water forced hundreds of people to seek shelter in the ruins of buildings, many previously destroyed in the war. Witnesses described a desperate situation, with makeshift homes washed away. The flooding creates new risks of disease and suffering for populations already struggling with shortages of food, water, and medicine. Journalist Shrouq Al-Aila, reporting from Gaza City, confirmed the tragic conditions. The storm highlights the extreme vulnerability of displaced families living in temporary shelters.
