The United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees in the Near East (UNRWA) oversees the largest refugee camp in South Gaza. Recently, the camp has been overwhelmed by an influx of refugees from northern Gaza, coinciding with the onset of the winter rains. This combination has led to a rapid deterioration of living conditions.
Residents are facing numerous challenges, including limited access to clean water, inadequate shelter, and insufficient medical supplies. The winter rains have further complicated efforts to provide essential services, making daily life increasingly difficult for those seeking refuge.
UNRWA is working tirelessly to support the affected population, but the escalating situation calls for increased international attention and assistance. The humanitarian crisis underscores the urgent need for sustainable solutions to address the needs of refugees in the region.
