The Palestinian government's media office in the Gaza Strip announced that, with the arrival of a low-pressure weather system and intensifying rainfall, around 70,000 tents housing displaced Palestinians have been flooded, causing damage worth millions of dollars.
The office also warned of the potential collapse of dozens of buildings left cracked and damaged by Israeli bombardment during the war, stating that rain and strong winds have increased the risk of these structures giving way.
According to the report, as winds and rain intensified, dozens of walls collapsed in various areas of the Gaza Strip, injuring a number of Palestinian citizens.
Warning of the consequences of continued adverse weather conditions, the Palestinian government's media office stressed the dangers facing residents of the area—particularly displaced people and families living in damaged buildings.
