Several Palestinians injured due to wall collapse on displaced people's tent in southern Gaza

Several Palestinians were injured on Tuesday evening due to a wall collapsing on a tent housing displaced people in southern Gaza Strip.

Medical sources reported the transfer of a number (not specified) of injured, including children, following the collapse of a wall of a house damaged by previous Israeli bombing during the genocide war, in the Al-Mawasi area northwest of Rafah city.

Recently, incidents of collapsing cracked and dilapidated buildings in Gaza have recurred due to bad weather conditions, resulting in fatalities and injuries.

In the latest statistics, Gaza Civil Defense announced on Monday that 25 people have died due to weather depressions since the beginning of December of this year, including 6 children who died from extreme cold.

The spokesperson for Civil Defense, Mahmoud Basil, said in a statement that 18 residential buildings damaged by previous Israeli bombing collapsed completely due to the effects of weather depressions and rains in the same period.

More than 110 residential buildings suffered partial collapses described as "dangerous", posing a direct threat to the lives of thousands of Palestinians living in them or nearby, according to Basil.

Palestinians are forced to reside in cracked and dilapidated buildings due to the lack of options amid Israel's destruction of most buildings in the sector.

Despite the end of the genocide with the entry of the ceasefire on October 10, 2025, living conditions have not seen significant improvement, due to Israel's failure to fulfill its commitments, including importing the agreed quantities of food, relief, and medical supplies, and mobile homes.

On October 8, 2023, Israel began a genocide in Gaza that lasted two years, leaving more than 71,000 Palestinian deaths and over 171,000 injured, and massive destruction affecting 90 percent of the civilian infrastructure, with reconstruction costs estimated by the United Nations at around 70 billion dollars.
