'We're in a state nobody can imagine': residents describe devastating rainstorm in Gaza
A rainstorm swept across the Gaza Strip, flooding hundreds of tents and collapsing homes sheltering families displaced by two years of war. At least six people have been killed, local health officials said. Three months since a ceasefire halted major combat, Israeli forces have ordered the near-total depopulation of nearly two-thirds of Gaza. More than 2 million people have been forced into a narrow strip near the coast, with most living in makeshift tents or damaged buildings
