🎥 Eyad Amawi of the Gaza Relief Committee told Drop Site that Palestinians in Gaza are walking more than five kilometers searching for drinking water, as Israel continues to deliberately deprive Palestinians of minimum required levels of food, medicine, and shelter aid, amid daily bombardment, forced evacuations, and mass displacement. Amawi said more than 2,900 children remain missing under the rubble, with Israel still blocking the cranes and heavy machinery needed to recover bodies and search collapsed buildings. “There is no ceasefire here in Gaza,” Amawi says from Deir al-Balah. jeremy scahill | Sharif Kouddous شريف عبد القدوس

The people of Gaza have been left to die. 10 children has frozen to death in Gaza in just one month as Israel continues blocking tents and winter shelter aid. Not by air strikes, but by cold, rain, and deliberate deprivation. One million women and girls are starving in Gaza in the cold. Cold is not a natural disaster when shelter is denied. Gaza is suffering from an Israeli-made crisis. This suffering is being manufactured by policy, not weather—Weaponize the weather. Deliberately inflicting on the group conditions of life calculated to bring about its physical destruction in whole or in part, is an act of genocide. Allowing humanitarian aid is not a favor-it is an obligation under international law.

📢 “We have no time to save our children”: Gaza aid coordinator issues desperate appeal as major winter storm drowns tent camps Eyad Amawi, humanitarian relief coordinator in central Gaza, told Drop Site News the situation is “absolutely catastrophic” and dire. Relentless rain has already flooded thousands of tents, with more than 1.5 million people “being flooded from above and below.” With sewage networks “completely destroyed,” water is pouring through every camp, even places that “never flooded before.” Lightning has knocked out what little connectivity remained. Amawi says this is Gaza’s first winter with the Strip “completely destroyed,” and warns that families cannot survive without immediate entry of unrestricted tents and mobile homes. “Please,” he says, “we have no time to save our children.”

🚨🇵🇸 GAZA FLOODED, AID BLOCKED: UN SAYS IT’S AN “ENGINEERED MISERY” As if nonstop bombardment and displacement weren’t enough, tens of thousands of Gazans are now literally drowning in sewage and rainwater. The UN is warning of a new crisis: winter floods sweeping through tent camps, while Israel continues to block fuel, shelter materials, and critical emergency supplies from entering. The main problem is the floodwaters mixing with sewage in displacement camps, exacerbating deaths, disease risks, and living conditions for ~1.5 million displaced people, which is well-documented amid ongoing Israeli restrictions on aid entry. Children are sleeping in mud, tents are collapsing, and sanitation is nonexistent, but aid trucks are still waiting at the border. This isn’t just a humanitarian failure… It's deliberate paralysis. Gaza isn’t just being bombed, it’s being left to rot in real time. Source: Reuters

WATCH | Gaza humanitarian coordinator Eyad Amawi joins the livestream from Deir al-Balah and began by recounting two massacres at humanitarian sites over the weekend: one targeting women and children trying to obtain food supplement and baby formula, the other striking civilians waiting for clean water. He flatly rejects Israeli claims that these attacks were mistakes. “They intentionally murder people to increase the suffering,” he says. Amawi warns that Israel has methodically shrunk Gaza’s livable territory to just 60 km² through repeated displacement orders. “The final chapter of this map,” he says, “is to make you flee your tent.” Even those who have already lost everything are being driven from makeshift shelters. He describes this as a deliberate campaign to reshape Gaza physically and psychologically—erasing communities, infrastructure, and the very notion of normal life. Israel’s plan is not random, Amawi insists. It is a policy of total depopulation, enforced through starvation, bombardment, and denial of basic materials. People are being forced southward, deeper into uninhabitable zones along the coast, where they are left without shelter, food, or water.

⭕️ US President Donald Trump claimed that “more than half” of Gaza’s population would leave if given the chance, repeatedly framing displacement as voluntary, as Israel has in the past. “More than half of Gaza will leave if given the opportunity,” he said, adding, “Even higher than that… We’ll see if that opportunity presents itself.” Trump went on: “If they were given the opportunity to live in a better climate they would move. They’re sorta there because they have to be.” He added, “We’re helping the people of Gaza a lot. So is Israel, by the way.” ➤ According to the Gaza Government Media Office, Israel has killed 418 Palestinians, the vast majority civilians, since agreeing to a ceasefire on October 10, and wounded more than 1,100 others. Israel is also blocking food and fuel, enforcing a medical siege on 2 million Palestinians, and denying shelter during winter storms that have flooded makeshift tents and left displaced families exposed and children dying of hypothermia.

🚨Winter has begun to tighten its grip on Gaza, and heavy rainfall has now flooded the shattered homes and makeshift tents where displaced Palestinians are trying to survive. Palestinian civil defense spokesperson Mahmoud Basal speaks of families living in the ruins of bombed-out neighborhoods with water pouring through broken roofs and in improvised shelters that offer little protection from the cold. Very little new tents or shelter materials have entered Gaza, as Israeli occupation authorities continue blocking humanitarian aid from reaching those who lost everything. According to OCHA’s 12 November snapshot, 1.48 million Palestinians urgently need shelter materials, 1.47 million require basic household supplies, and more than 320,000 housing units have been damaged leaving nearly the entire population exposed as winter sets in. mahmoud_basal88 (IG)

Humanitarian Coordinator: GHF Will Leave Gaza, Aid Model ‘Increases Our Suffering’ ➤ After 90 days of forced starvation, “We have here 2.5 million people still waiting for their main meal to stay alive,” Eyad Amawi, a relief coordinator in Central Gaza, told Drop Site News. Amawi, who works with NGOs to coordinate aid, said Boston Consulting Group’s exit from the Gaza Humanitarian Foundation (GHF) signals that “the GHF… will leave Gaza soon.” He said the group realizes their model is not cut out to serve the needs of a starved and besieged population or expand to meet the scale of the crisis. GHF’s public claims that they will “continue supporting Gaza,” Amawi said, are “fake news.” Without hundreds of distribution centers, Amawi warned, aid cannot be distributed properly. GHF currently operates only four hubs. jeremy scahill | Ryan Grim

Secretary Rubio was asked about children in Gaza who have frozen to death because Israel is blocking the entry of tents, mobile homes, and other basic shelter materials, despite a ceasefire that was supposed to allow the free flow of aid. Rubio said adequate aid cannot yet be delivered because it risks being looted. That claim directly conflicts with what a World Food Programme representative said yesterday. The WFP official stated that the ceasefire has eliminated the large-scale looting that occurred through September, when Israel exercised security control over aid access. Meanwhile, UNRWA says it has shelter assistance for 1.3 million displaced Palestinians stockpiled at the border, ready to enter Gaza but blocked by Israel. When Rubio was asked about UNRWA, he called it a “corrupted organization that’s unsalvageable. Period.” He was responding to a question about whether the U.S. is considering sanctioning the U.N. agency mandated to protect the rights of Palestinian refugees. The clip below features the question on Gaza’s humanitarian conditions from Nadia Bilbassy Charters ناديا البلبيسي.

🔴 Under the U.S.– and Israel-imposed obstruction of winter aid, at least 32 Palestinians have died in Gaza over the past month from cold exposure and collapsing shelters, according to health authorities and multiple reports. In a recent interview with The Economist, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu defended the ongoing aid blockade, refusing to explain why minimum levels of food, medicine, fuel, shelter aid, and reconstruction, explicitly required under the ceasefire, remain blocked. Pressed on mass displacement and the widespread devastation, Netanyahu said the civilian suffering would only end after Gaza is fully disarmed. The recent death toll includes at least seven children who froze to death from cold exposure, and at least 25 others killed in building collapses and shelter failures as winter conditions worsened and Israel and the U.S. continued to block mobile homes. Doctors warn hospitals are overwhelmed amid acute shortages of medicines and medical supplies, rising malnutrition among pregnant women and children, and a surge in respiratory illnesses. Health officials say continued U.S. and Israeli restrictions are driving preventable deaths across the Strip.

REPORT | Shelter aid for more than 1.3 million displaced Palestinians remains stockpiled outside Gaza with no explanation from Israeli authorities for why it is being blocked, according to humanitarian workers and medical advocates involved in ongoing aid negotiations, Drop Site News has learned. Advocates told Drop Site that Israeli officials have repeatedly declined to provide reasons for denying entry to basic supplies, including food with protein content, infant formula, medical nutrition such as Plumpy’Nut, nutritional supplements, as well as temporary shelter materials. Such items, that are not designated as “dual-use” and do not appear on Israel’s own restricted lists continue to be refused without explanation, aid workers say. Drop Site spoke with Washington-based physician Dr. Mimi Syed (Dr. Mimi Syed), who has volunteered multiple times in Gaza and is engaged in efforts to press for humanitarian aid access. She relayed warnings from the head of pediatrics at Nasser Hospital, Gaza’s largest hospital, that the consequences of obstruction are already deadly, with infants in neonatal units in northern Gaza forced to share oxygen masks amid critical shortages, and children and newborns having died in recent days from exposure to extreme cold. The United Nations confirmed yesterday the death of a two-week old baby due to hypothermia, as winter conditions worsen, rain storms flood and tear through old tents, while emergency shelter for over a million displaced Palestinians remains stalled just hundreds of meters outside Gaza. Drop Site’s Ryan Grim discussed the aid blockade earlier on Breaking Points.

Eyad Amawi, Gaza relief coordinator gives a sobering account of how ordinary Palestinians in Gaza are responding to the latest ceasefire talks. The overwhelming sentiment, he says, is exhaustion. People are barely following the details — not because they don’t care, but because survival consumes every ounce of attention. Most Palestinians in Gaza don’t ask about clauses or guarantees. They ask one thing: when will the ceasefire be announced? Amawi notes that after nearly 22 months of continuous genocidal war, the need for even a temporary pause — to eat, to rest, to bury the dead — is overpowering. Still, those more politically aware understand that the current proposal is a trap. Many fear that accepting a flawed deal will simply normalize Israeli control and lead to permanent displacement. Amawi stresses that any ceasefire must include unrestricted aid. Without that, nothing changes. “If aid is blocked, we will go 60 days without tangible change,” he warns. He makes clear that there’s broad consensus inside Gaza on one red line: no Palestinian negotiator can accept a plan that allows the construction of a concentration camp in Rafah. “We will not forgive them,” he says. “We will not allow anyone to push us into this trap.”

Even after the announcement of a ceasefire, reports indicate that the Israeli military is continuing to flatten the remaining residential blocks in northern Gaza, leaving displaced civilians with no homes to return to. Satellite images from January 2025 reveal widespread destruction in Jabalia, Beit Lahia, and Beit Hanoun, alongside expanding tent camps in Gaza City—highlighting the mass displacement caused by the recent Israeli ground operation in northern Gaza. If a final ceasefire agreement is not reached, Israel will likely target Gaza City next with the same tactics of systematic destruction and displacement. More updates:

Closing the crossings is not a temporary measure… and preventing many humanitarian supplies and essential materials from entering Gaza is a suffocation of an entire way of life. Today, Gaza is still besieged in every sense of the word: patients without treatment, families without shelter, children without a future, and families waiting for relief at a closed gate. All border crossings must be opened, and a rapid, sustained and unimpeded flow of aid instated – including items which have been restricted so far, but are essential to lifesaving humanitarian services. Enough blockade. Enough suffering. #open_crossings #advocacy
