Winter is hitting Gaza and many Palestinians have little protection from the cold

Nearly two million displaced Palestinians in Gaza are struggling to protect themselves from the coming winter. This comes as Israel’s 14-month-old war with Hamas drags on. The prices of blankets, wood, and winter clothing have skyrocketed amid shortages. The tents many people live in are growing increasingly tattered. Aid workers say nearly a million people need winterization supplies and that thousands of tents, blankets and mattresses are stuck awaiting delivery into Gaza in part because of Israeli restrictions.
