I usually share a new Palestinian account every day but today I am going to do a thread of people I’ve already verified impacted by the recent flooding in Gaza. If you can help any of these families- many who lost everything again- please do. edition.cnn.com/2025/11/14/m...
Heavy rainfall floods the camps of displaced Palestinians in Gaza | CNN
Displaced Palestinians in Gaza woke up Friday morning to inches of water flooding their tents, after heavy rainfall overnight left their shelters and belongings soaked with no way to dry them out.

Want to help with a baby shower?
I’m sharing a Palestinian account every day and today is Waseem. Waseem was married just a few days before the war began and him and his family (some with injuries) have been displaced repeatedly. He hadn’t made a fundraiser before but now in two months his first child Nabil is going to be born❤️
