The plight of displaced Palestinians has worsened after heavy rains and floods hit Gaza, and a nine-month-old baby died of severe cold.
Nine-month-old Kanan Ahmed Raqiq died of hypothermia in his family's makeshift tent in the southern Gaza city of Khan Yunis, a doctor who spoke on condition of anonymity said, according to the French news agency AFP.
The spokesperson of the Civil Defense Agency of Gaza, Mahmoud Basal, also confirmed the death of the child.
Tens of thousands of tents in Gaza were flooded by heavy rains last week. Almost the entire population has been displaced at least once during Israeli attacks since 2023, and millions still live in tents or makeshift shelters.
Five people, including three children, were killed when a sand embankment collapsed the day after the flood. After that, hundreds of families in different areas of Gaza City, central and northern Gaza left the camps flooded by rainwater and went in search of safer places.
