Heavy Rains Flood Tents of Displaced in Gaza

On the 410th day of the ongoing genocide, Israeli forces demolished several buildings in the Beit Lahia project area in northern Gaza. Meanwhile, heavy rains flooded the tents of displaced Palestinians across the besieged strip, exacerbating the dire humanitarian crisis for those struggling with hunger and thirst.

The Israeli military continues its aggressive operations in northern Gaza, targeting homes, displacing civilians, and imposing a blockade that has left the population on the brink of starvation. The campaign also includes attacks on medical staff, hospitals, and civil defense teams.

In Beit Lahia, buildings were reduced to rubble as Israeli forces intensified their demolition efforts. Footage shows entire structures collapsed into debris, with nearby buildings suffering severe cracks and damage, rendering them uninhabitable.

In the central Gaza Strip, an Israeli attack claimed the life of a Palestinian in Nuseirat refugee camp, the third-largest refugee camp in Palestine. Established after the 1948 Nakba, Nuseirat has become a focal point of intense bombardment since the October 7, 2023, Al-Aqsa Flood military operation. Israeli airstrikes and shelling have caused widespread devastation and fatalities, with the refugee camp under severe siege according to the Quds News Network.

Israeli airstrikes also targeted residential buildings in Rafah, southern Gaza, adding to the destruction. Meanwhile, a worsening food crisis has taken hold as a flour shortage and the closure of a major bakery in central Gaza leave families struggling to secure basic sustenance.

Approximately 2.3 million residents in Gaza rely on international aid for survival. Humanitarian organizations report widesprea
malnutrition and warn of an emerging famine, particularly in the severely affected northern regions. Aid groups have confirmed the Israeli military of obstructing and even preventing aid deliveries, further exacerbating the crisis.

On Monday, medical sources reported the deaths of 50 Palestinians and dozens more injured in Israeli airstrikes across Gaza. The total death toll in Gaza has now reached 43,922, with 103,898 injured since the start of the genocide.
