He added that many roads were closed due to being flooded, and collecting rainwater, which made it difficult for citizens and vehicles to move, amid strong winds, which led to trees and billboards falling.
It is noteworthy that the flooding of chomes and various neighborhoods in low areas in the Gaza Strip occurs annually with heavy rains, due to worn-out infrastructure and worn rainwater drainage culverts that need periodic maintenance work as a result of the repeated occupation attacks on the Strip.
