Heavy rains flooded makeshift tents across Gaza on February 24, 2026, leaving displaced Palestinians with minimal protection from the winter storm. Civil defense units responded to numerous distress calls, particularly in al-Mawasi camp and areas west of Gaza City. Simultaneously, Israeli forces killed two Palestinians, including a boy, in northern Gaza, despite an existing ceasefire agreement. Since the ceasefire began, over 600 Palestinians have been killed by Israeli attacks. Tens of thousands of families in Gaza live in inadequate shelters, facing increased risks of illness and hypothermia due to the catastrophic conditions.
