For over 10 months, the war in Gaza, Palestine has led to the displacement of over 1.9 million people. Often forced to move within minutes of Israeli forces announcing an evacuation order, many people have now been displaced multiple times. In Al-Mawasi, Khan Younis, the Palestinian Agricultural Development Association (PARC), with Médecins Sans Frontières (MSF) support, is providing emergency latrines, solar water pump systems, water treatment plants, and goods such as tents, to some of the displaced people arriving in Khan Younis.

As evacuation orders by Israeli forces continue to compress people into smaller and smaller areas along the now increasingly cramped coastal area of Deir Al-Balah and Khan Younis in the Gaza Strip, the living conditions in Al-Mawasi are getting worse. OCHA estimates that from 22 to 26 July alone, more than 190,000 Palestinians were displaced in Khan Younis and Deir Al-Balah.
