Unicef diz que Israel bloqueia reparações em Gaza e alerta para risco de inundações

UNICEF reports that Israel has blocked essential repairs in Gaza, increasing flood risks as winter approaches. The agency highlights the urgent need for infrastructure restoration to prevent disease outbreaks and further displacement of residents. Local authorities indicate that Israeli actions have devastated water infrastructure, leaving many in makeshift camps. Heavy rains have already caused flooding, resulting in fatalities. Despite a ceasefire agreement last year aimed at reconstruction, progress remains stalled due to unresolved issues regarding Hamas disarmament and Israeli troop withdrawal. Health officials warn of significant disease risks due to inadequate sanitation and health services.
