Israel Compounds Rain Damage and Suffering in Gaza

The rains have started, and once again, Palestinian families in Gaza are being forced to face winter with nothing.

Hundreds of thousands of people are sleeping in makeshift tents, soaked through by rain, without electricity, without heating, without clean water.

And still, people have nowhere safe or dry to go.

The Israeli government is still restricting the entry of enough critical aid.

Building materials, fuel, clean water, medicine, and proper shelter are nowhere near enough while almost two million displaced Palestinians are trying to survive in impossible conditions.

No one, anywhere, should have to live like this.

Aid must be allowed into Gaza without delay – everything Palestinians need to survive this winter, and everything needed to begin rebuilding the lives that have been shattered.
