Heavy rain has hit the Gaza Strip, causing serious problems for thousands of people living in tents. The storms swept across the coast, turning the ground where people are camping into deep mud and flooding their shelters.
Most of the people in these tents were forced to leave their homes because of the ongoing war. Now, they are facing a new struggle as their belongings and sleeping areas have been soaked by the rain.
Aid groups say it is very hard to help everyone right now. Supplies are limited, and the bad weather makes it difficult to move things to where they are needed most.
Officials in Gaza are worried about what will happen next. They say the situation is becoming a major crisis. Because many buildings were already damaged by bombings, there is also a risk that some of those structures could collapse now that they are being hit by heavy rain.
Families are being left without dry places to sleep, and they are struggling to keep warm. Without more help and better supplies, the conditions in these camps are expected to get much worse as the winter weather continues.
