Gaza: when the sound of rain is as frightening as bomb explosions

In Gaza, where climatic conditions have been significantly affected by prolonged conflict, recent rains have generated deep emotional impacts. Palestinian cameraman Ahmed Abu Kmail, aged 39, described in an interview published by El País, the fear caused by the sound of water falling on his homes.

Kmail lives in a rural area of Gaza near Jabalia city, and his home is a tent set up on low-lying land. In recent days, precipitation has triggered partial floods affecting vulnerable structures such as his own.

According to his statement to El País, "the rain does not just ruin what's already broken; it also makes me feel like I'm hearing the sound of a bombing." He added that his family remains alert even at night, fearing for the safety of their homes and possible landslides or collapses on the terrain.

No official data exists regarding exact rainfall amounts recorded in Gaza since November 2026, but the report notes that levels have been significant for a region generally characterized by dry and unpredictable weather.

El País does not provide additional information about specific structural impacts nor any government measures taken in response to this situation. The news is based solely on Ahmed Abu Kmail's direct statement as part of his personal experience during the rain.
