Heavy rains and low temperatures have exacerbated humanitarian suffering across Gaza, where most of the 2.2 million population live in tents after two years of bombardment. Thousands of homeless people have been washed out of makeshift shelters and forced to seek emergency refuge elsewhere. Flooding has displaced families, damaged temporary shelters, and increased exposure to cold and illness among displaced populations.
