Az-Zawayda, Gaza Strip – On Saturday night, water began rushing into Jaber al-Kaseeh’s tent in central Gaza’s az-Zawayda area, waking him and his family as heavy rain swept across Gaza.

More than 70,000 tents have been flooded since heavy rains began late on Friday, according to Gaza’s Government Media Office.
