Gaza Floods Emergency

Gaza Floods Emergency: Help Displaced Families Survive Winter

Heavy rainfall has flooded an estimated 70,000 tents across Gaza, leaving displaced Palestinian families exposed to harsh winter conditions.

Palestinians who have survived years of bombardment and repeated displacement are now facing another devastating emergency. Floodwater has swept through displacement camps, soaking bedding, damaging belongings and leaving families with little protection against the cold.

For families already living in makeshift shelters, the flooding has made an unbearable situation even worse. Children, older people and those with existing health conditions are particularly vulnerable, while restrictions on humanitarian supplies continue to make the response more difficult.

Action For Humanity is already responding on the ground in Gaza, delivering emergency shelter assistance, winter supplies and food directly to displaced families.

Your donation can help us reach more families affected by the flooding. They need your support. Now.

Why does Gaza still need humanitarian assistance?

Years of conflict have left families displaced, essential infrastructure damaged and communities struggling to access basic services.

As of September 2026, more than 1.76 million people, approximately 84% of Gaza's population, were living in displacement sites or inadequate shelters.

Heavy rainfall and flooding have made conditions even more difficult, leaving families urgently needing food, healthcare, clean water and adequate shelter.

A ceasefire does not mean the humanitarian crisis is over. Families will continue to need assistance as they recover and rebuild their lives.
