Strong winds, rain and winter Gaza are connecting the suffering of thousands of Palestinians, thousands of families were destroyed in the bombing of the coastal enclave after living in worn-out tents.

Hundreds of Palestinians have returned to northern Gaza as a ceasefire came into force last month, stopping the 15 -month attack of Israel on the region. But most people destroyed their homes or found heavy damaged.

Families have since struggled to find a shelter between the enclaves surrounded by debris mounds and destruction.

A spokesperson of the Gaza City Municipality told Al Jazira that the city did not have enough resources to help the displaced between the storms, saying that sewage and rainwater entered hundreds of tents and shelters.

Mahmud Riyad Khalil al-Feummi said that he was living in a tent along with three other families in a temporarily speaking to Alfink in a school courtyard of Gaza city.

Al-Faiami said, “The blankets are very wet,” explaining that he sent his two-month-old child and his brother, who has spinal cord injury, which is accompanied by other people due to the harsh weather conditions To live.

“We don’t know what to do. We do not know where to go. This is our situation here. ,

Reporting from Gaza City, Honey Mahmood of Al Jazeera said that heavy rains and air had forced several Palestinians to leave a temporary explosion in the western part of the city.

Basic supply such as warm clothes are also not widely available, deteriorating the situation.

Mahmud said, “Right now people here not only lack shelter, but are also very important supplies that provide them some warmth and protection from these terrible weather conditions.”

In its latest update on Wednesday, the United Nations’ Office of Human Affairs (OCHA) said that more than 500,000 people are returning to Gaza and North Gaza governor, “The need for food, water, tents and shelter materials in that area is important Is”.

Despite the growth of human assistance since the ceasefire on January 19, shelter aid has been limited.

Earlier this week, the Gaza government’s media office accused Israel of assisting and restricting the flow of shelters in the region.

“Protecting shelters has become an essential human need, which cannot be delayed. At this time this is the most pressure, ”said in a statement earlier this week.

Tes Ingram, a communication manager of UNICEF, the United Nations Bal Rights Agency, said that Palestinians in Gaza are ill to face cold weather as they have lost a lot during the war.

The situation for children is particularly dangerous, Ingram told Al Jazira from Gaza City.

“For children in these situations, it is not only frightening to be out, exposed and cold, but it is also very dangerous for their good,” he said. “We have many children in Gaza who have died of hypothermia and it is clear here when you meet with families that they do not have that they need to protect them from that cold. Families lack warm clothes for their children. There are many children without shoes. ,

Displaced Palestinians have continued to face harsh conditions in other parts of Gaza.

“The tent flew and people were in chaos,” Sakar Abdelal told Al Jazeera from Dir El-Balah in the central part of the Enclave. “Now we are taking our belongings to a person who agreed to host us by the end of winter.”

“This is more difficult for us than displacement,” Anwar Hospital said, another Palestinian in Dare El-Balah. “We woke up at night and found that our tents were destroyed due to wind. Our clothes and food were filled with sand. ,

In Southern Gaza, Rafah Municipality has called for 40,000 additional tents and emergency shelter units for the residents. The city is still hosting thousands of displaced people whose houses have been destroyed in other areas.

The municipality also said that it does not have enough heavy machinery, which is hindering the roads reopening and clearing the debris.
