Heavy rain and flooding have worsened conditions for hundreds of thousands of displaced Palestinians in Gaza, with around 70,000 tents reportedly flooded or damaged, affecting an estimated 350,000 people. In some displacement camps, floodwaters have reached 1.5 metres, leaving families in urgent need of shelter, blankets, winter clothing and heating supplies. Israeli restrictions continue to limit the entry of humanitarian aid, despite warnings that conditions will deteriorate as winter sets in.
