International Committee of the Red Cross:

▪ The collapse of a damaged building in Gaza City is a reminder of the unbearable conditions that tens of thousands of people are forced to endure.

▪ Civilians continue to suffer hardship and death. In addition to the lack of adequate shelter, they face persistent difficulties in accessing health care, safe water, and other basic needs.

▪ We provided materials to support search and response efforts, in response to a request from the local authorities in Gaza.

▪ As winter approaches and heavy rains and strong winds increase, the risk of collapse of damaged buildings increases and puts lives at risk.
