“Winter in Gaza means more people will die shivering”: Cold and rain pose added threat to displaced Palestinians

Many of Gaza’s 1.9 million population have been displaced multiple times, often to sprawling tent settlements.

But now, the rainy season has brought relentless downpours, harsh winds, and freezing temperatures. Tents are battered and torn, allowing rain to seep in and putting entire families, especially young children and the elderly, at risk of freezing to death.

Nowhere is safe in Gaza. Nowhere is warm.

"We have no mattress, no food, no clothes — nothing. We fled the airstrikes as we were,” said Adla , a woman fleeing North Gaza, where aid has been cut off for more than two months.

Some families had settled along the beach, where they thought they would be safer from attacks. But strong waves are washing tents away and leaving families at risk of drowning.

The rain is spoiling already sparse food supplies, putting pregnant women experiencing crisis levels of hunger at imminent risk of starving to death.

Women and girls are reporting more infections from not having access to menstrual products, clean clothing, or water to bathe — made worse by the combination of cold and hunger which make it that much harder for people to recover.

Our teams are doing everything they can to deliver lifesaving aid to women and girls in Gaza, but with such much need, women and girls urgently need your continued support to survive.

Will you rush an emergency gift today and deliver lifesaving care and humanitarian aid in Gaza and wherever care is needed most this winter? [[link removed]?]

MAKE AN EMERGENCY GIFT [[link removed]?]

We condemn the violence in Lebanon, Gaza, the West Bank, and Israel, and echo the UN Secretary-General’s call for a sustained humanitarian ceasefire and the immediate and unconditional release of all hostages by Hamas. The suffering must end and peace must prevail.

Thank you for not turning away from this crisis.
