Gaza is entering its fourth winter of displacement, and the first rains on November 6 and 7 already damaged 19,432 shelters. Many households lack adequate winter clothing. A voucher lets a family buy correctly sized, culturally appropriate warm clothing and footwear from local vendors, and puts cash into the local market. Gaza floods have hit the tent camps hard: around 70,000 tents flooded in a single day, and Civil Defense received more than 1,500 emergency calls in 10 hours.
