Ramallah – Ma’an – The Network of Non-Governmental Organizations warned of the deterioration of the humanitarian situation in the Gaza Strip, in light of the ongoing genocidal war that has been going on for nearly a year, in addition to the prevention of the entry of humanitarian aid, and the continued displacement of a large number of citizens in most areas.

In a statement issued on Tuesday, the network expressed its concern about the reality of the displaced, especially with the approach of winter; whether those in dilapidated tents, or in crowded shelters, or those who have rehabilitated parts of their destroyed homes, which may collapse at any time.

She noted the presence of large numbers of displaced people’s tents in areas near the beach, which do not have adequate infrastructure, which exposes them to flooding, denouncing the occupation’s continued prevention of the entry of shelter supplies, primarily tents, plastic covers, tarpaulins, and other needs to prepare for the winter.

She also called on t
he international community to work hard to pressure the occupation to stop the crimes of genocide against our people, and to open the crossings to allow the entry of aid in all its forms, most notably: tents, tarpaulins, and cleaning materials.

She also called for the need to work on addressing the expected flow of water and floods from rainwater, which may be caused by torrents in low-lying areas.
