Situational Report- UNDP/PAPP's Emergency Response to Solid Waste Management
Situational Report- UNDP/PAPP's Emergency Response to Solid Waste Management
October 11, 2024
The ongoing war has led to the complete collapse of the solid waste management system in Gaza. There is no access to the two sanitary landfills, and as internally displaced persons (IDPs) move from place to place seeking refuge, waste accumulates at more than 141 temporary dumping sites. This situation poses serious risks to public health, the environment, and the dignity of affected communities. In this situational report, updates and current situation insights are available.
