A winter storm flooded tents sheltering displaced Palestinians in Gaza, with reports of about 70,000 shelters flooded within roughly 12 hours. Aid groups say 200,000–300,000 new tents or caravans are needed and attribute shelter shortfalls to Israeli restrictions on shelter materials, fuel and heavy machinery.
