Gaza's damaged infrastructure and non-functional municipal equipment are exacerbating the humanitarian crisis, leaving residents, particularly displaced populations, highly vulnerable to winter storms and flooding.

The inability to manage winter rains poses a significant risk of widespread flooding and deteriorating conditions.
