Heba Arafat navigates her Gaza City apartment on floors tilted at a steep angle, the result of Israeli airstrikes that collapsed the building's foundations and left the entire structure leaning dangerously, according to Al-Monitor. Residents across the territory continue to shelter in damaged structures despite the risks posed by compromised foundations and unstable walls.
Reconstruction efforts in Gaza remain stalled, leaving displaced families with limited options for safe housing. Many Palestinians have no choice but to remain in buildings threatened by collapse rather than seek shelter elsewhere in the overcrowded enclave.
