Rainfall has poured into houses sheltering dozens of Palestinian families in several areas across the blockaded coastal enclave.<\/p>\r\n\r\n

 <\/p>\r\n\r\n

Using fishing boats, civil defense services have managed to rescue residents from the flooded houses and move them to safe places.<\/p>\r\n\r\n

 <\/p>\r\n\r\n

Fearing the floods, dozens of Palestinian families have already left their homes in several parts of the Strip, according to Days of Palestine.<\/p>\r\n\r\n

 <\/p>\r\n\r\n

Residents of flood-prone areas vacated their homes after local authorities warned that such areas were in danger of being flooded with rainwater and sewage.<\/p>\r\n\r\n

 <\/p>\r\n\r\n

Local authorities have said that the cold spell could cause a “humanitarian disaster,” as the Strip’s war-battered infrastructure cannot not withstand heavy rainfall.<\/p>\r\n\r\n

 <\/p>\r\n\r\n

Already undeveloped as a result of Israeli 11-year blockade, Gaza’s rickety infrastructure sustained further damage during the 51-day Israeli military onslaught in July and August of 2014.<\/p>\r\n\r\n

 <\/p>\r\n\r\n

Over 2,160 Palestinians were killed – and some 11,000 injured – during the Israeli seven-week war, which was the third major Israeli offensive on Gaza in a six-year span.<\/p>","content_source":"","content_url":"","content_columns":"0","content_date_start":"2018-01-07 10:50:22","content_date_finish":"2018-01-07 10:50:22","content_date_register":"2018-01-07 10:53:32","content_date_last_edit":"2018-01-07 10:53:32","content_show_img":"1","content_show_details":"0","content_show_related_img":"0","content_show_slider":"1","content_show_title_slider":"1","content_comment":"1","content_score":"0","content_recorded":"0","content_confirmed":"0","content_status":"1","content_kind":"0","old_id":"0","tag_id":null,"tag_word":null,"tag_service":null,"tag_total":null,"tag_soundex":null,"attach_token":"1273724394","attach_date_register":"2018-01-07 10:53:31","attach_id":"415277","attach_file_ext":"jpg","attach_file_header":"image\/jpeg","attach_img_type":"2","attach_img_width":"450","attach_img_height":"300","attach_file_media":"1","attach_show_watermark":"1","score_average":null,"score_count":null,"score_date_last":null,"visit_count":"227","visit_date_last":"2024-03-15 15:33:52","attach_title":"Gazans Struggle to Cope with Heavy Rains as Threat of War Escalates\r\n 2","node_title":"news","ot_node_left_right":"[{\"node_id\":122, \"left\":2, \"right\":53}]"}]]
