“Baby turned blue from the cold”… 9-month-old infant in tent in Gaza Strip

Due to Israeli air strikes, residents living in tents in refugee camps in the Gaza Strip are in danger of survival due to cold and heavy rain ahead of winter. A 9-month-old baby froze in Khan Younis, and five people, including three children, lost their lives when a tent flooded due to heavy rain. The United Nations said 26,000 households were damaged by the storm, and about 65% of residents are still living in tents or temporary shelters.
