Gaza Flood Protection Hit
The United Nations said that the shelter supplies and aid permitted into Gaza are insufficient to protect displaced people from rain and flooding. It warned that restrictions on materials and equipment, along with funding shortfalls, are increasing the danger as winter approaches. The organization reported that rainfall caused extensive damage to displacement sites, and that an infant drowned while three children and a woman were killed when a sand dune collapsed onto their tents. Urgent needs include tents, blankets, water-removal vehicles and drainage pumps. The UN said it could bring in larger quantities of aid if the necessary permits were issued.
