Gaza Displacement drives snakes and scorpions to refugee tents
The article discusses the increasing risks of snakes and scorpions spreading in the displacement camps in Gaza Strip, due to the widespread environmental destruction caused by Israeli operations. The destruction of buildings and agricultural lands has led to changes in these creatures' natural habitats, prompting them to seek food and water in populated areas. The accumulation of waste and debris, especially with rising temperatures, attracts rodents and insects that serve as prey for snakes and scorpions, thereby increasing the danger of bites among displaced people, particularly children and the elderly, amidst shortages of medical resources and an exhausted healthcare system. Experts call for regular cleanup campaigns and public awareness to adopt preventive measures, as health and environmental threats continue to grow due to the ongoing accumulation of rubble and refuse.
