Gaza Displacement Seeks Urgent Aid
Gaza is facing a severe shelter crisis, with 70-80% of tents and displacement centers deteriorating and falling into disrepair due to weather conditions. This worsens the suffering of over 1.2 to 1.5 million displaced people living in crowded camps under harsh conditions. The Ministry of Social Development is urgently requesting the immediate entry of 200,000 tents and 300,000 plastic sheets to provide at least minimal protection for families, amidst a critical shortage of supplies. Approximately 94% of the population are in need of shelter assistance, with more than 60% of residential units in the sector either destroyed or damaged. Risks continue to escalate as housing conditions worsen and appropriate shelter materials remain scarce, against the backdrop of ongoing Israeli violence since October 2023, which has resulted in hundreds of thousands of displaced individuals and widespread destruction in the area.
