The Palestinian Civil Defence and the Gaza Government Media Office have issued an urgent warning to Palestinians in the Strip, on 10 December. The polar storm “Byron” will hit within 72 hours. Gaza flooding is imminent.
More than 90 percent of Gaza’s residential buildings have been damaged or destroyed by the Israeli occupation. This storm threatens more than 1.5 million displaced Palestinians, living in worn out tents across the Strip. Officials say that it is expected to bring flash flooding to Gaza — along with strong gusts of wind capable of uprooting tents, rising sea waves, and thunderstorms.
