August 4, 2025, Gaza City, Gaza Strip, Palestinian Territory: Palestinian families who cannot find a place to stay in Gaza City are struggling to survive under difficult conditions in makeshift tents they have set up in Gaza City. As a result of more than 20 months of attacks by the Israeli army targeting settlements, hospitals, schools and public buildings in the Gaza Strip, nearly 90 percent of the population has been displaced. In the Gaza Strip, where approximately 2.3 million people live, most of the displaced Palestinians are trying to survive in damaged buildings or tents.
