HIGHLIGHTS

On 14 November, more than 13,000 households were affected by rain and flooding across Gaza.
As of 14 November, Kerem Shalom, Zikim and Kissufim crossings remain open and operational, with humanitarian cargo offloading and uploading alternating days between Zikim and Kissufim.

SITUATION OVERVIEW

On 14 November, more than 13,000 households were affected by rain across Gaza. Hundreds of tents and makeshift shelters across the Strip were reportedly flooded, leaving households exposed to harsh weather, loss of belongings, and heightened protection and health risks, particularly for people with disabilities, older persons, and other vulnerable groups. OCHA and partners are compiling information of the affected areas while response to affected households has started.

UNITED NATIONS-COORDINATED AID ENTRY^*

As of 14 November, Kerem Shalom, Zikim and Kissufim crossings are operational, with humanitarian cargo offloading and uploading alternating days between Zikim and Kissufim.

On 14 November, based on preliminary data, 43 UN-coordinated trucks carrying food parcels were sent from Ashdod to Zikim crossing for offloading.

Aid crossings into Gaza will be closed for cargo offloading on 15 November due to Shabbat, though partners will be able to uplift aid from the crossings.

HUMANITARIAN RESPONSE

Food Security

For monthly general food assistance, as of 12 November, partners have assisted more than 53,000 households, through 52 distribution points in the Gaza Strip, including 16 in northern Gaza since the start of the month. Although thousands of metric tons of food parcels are available in various corridors, scanning and prioritization issues continued to limit arrivals during the previous weeks.
Starting on 12 November, in the north, due to food parcel shortages, partners altered rations mid-month. Contingency wheat flour and high energy biscuits were distributed, instead of each family receiving two food parcels to sustain distributions.

Health

To enhance sexual and reproductive health services, including maternal and neonatal care, partners distributed 8 incubators, 17 delivery beds, 17 cardiotocography (CTG) devices for fetal monitoring, 22 examination tables, 10,263 postpartum kits, and 24,000 disposable gowns to four hospitals in Gaza city (Al Sahaba, Patient Friendly, Al Helou and Al Quds) and IMC Hospital in Deir al Balah.
Partners also supplied a range of life-saving medicines, including five Inter-Agency Reproductive Health Kits designed to address the reproductive health needs of approximately 2,365 women and girls in Nasser Hospital, Al Aqsa Hospital, and primary health care centres in An Nuseirat and Az Zawaida. These kits include supplies for post-rape care, sexually transmitted infections, and intra-uterine devices, among others.

Water, Sanitation and Hygiene

WASH Cluster partners are rehabilitating the Southern UN well in Khan Younis to restore water supply services for 30,000 people.
A partner-supplied generator has been mounted on a two-wheel trailer for Beit Lahia to facilitate water production from multiple wells.
Debris removal has been completed on Najy Al Ali Street near Sheikh Radwan pond allowing access for secondary water well repairs to serve returning populations.
A partner has repurposed three roll-on/roll-off trucks for solid waste transfer.
A partner distributed 166,220 towels, 325 buckets (18L) and 40 add-on kits, benefiting approximately 170,000 people across the Gaza Strip.
