100K Homeless in Gaza face severe Flooding, Cold as UN Declares State of Emergency

Juan Cole reports on 100K Homeless in Gaza face severe Flooding, Cold as UN Declares State of Emergency.

“The flooding is exacerbating the already dire humanitarian situation in Gaza caused by blockade and the unprecedented destruction from the latest Israeli offensive,” the UN agency said in a post on its Facebook.

The agency, which is already massively stretched due to the summer’s conflict, said that it was “providing emergency fuel to supply back-up generators for pumping stations, portable pumps, municipalities, water, sanitation and health facilities.”

The brutality of the illegal Israeli blockade is adding to the misery of the Palestinians as it is meant to. The whole Israeli policy is make Palestinian so miserable so that they flee Greater Israel forever and never come back, thereby making Greater Israel ‘Arab-Frei’.
