This marks the third such weather event to impact the Palestinian territory this winter, with a fourth system expected to arrive starting Monday, meteorologist Laith al-Allami told Anadolu. The repeated storms are compounding the suffering of Palestinians, many of whom have been displaced by two years of Israeli bombardment that has destroyed much of the Gaza Strip.

The ongoing conflict has left many families living in makeshift shelters, vulnerable to the elements. The lack of adequate housing and infrastructure makes them particularly susceptible to the effects of severe weather. The situation is further complicated by limited access to resources and humanitarian aid.

The Al Jazeera news agency reports that the flooding has damaged tents and belongings, leaving families exposed to the cold and damp. The accumulation of debris further hinders movement and poses health risks. The combination of these factors creates a precarious and challenging environment for displaced Palestinians.

The United Nations and other international organizations are working to provide assistance to those affected by the flooding. However, the scale of the need is immense, and the ongoing conflict continues to impede relief efforts. The upcoming polar low-pressure system is expected to bring further rain and wind, potentially worsening the situation for displaced Palestinians in Gaza.
