Roughly 19,000 displaced families across 339 camps in Gaza had their shelters flooded and damaged by a recent weather depression, Shehab Wire reported. The inundation occurred amid severe technical shortages that threaten the continuation of rescue and relief operations.

The damage affects tent encampments housing Gaza's displaced population. Aid agencies face mounting obstacles in responding to the crisis as equipment and resource constraints compound the effects of the flooding.
