Some pushed cars through the Gaza Strip's flooded streets, while others took to donkey-pulled carts to wade through the floodwaters after fresh winter rains lashed the war-battered Palestinian territory.
The rains have flooded tents and makeshift shelters in Gaza, where most of the buildings have been destroyed or damaged by two years of war between Israel and Hamas.
The health ministry in the Hamas-run territory said a two-week-old baby named Muhammad Khalil Abu Al-Khair died because of severe hypothermia caused by extreme cold.
The ministry said the baby had been admitted to a hospital two days ago and placed in intensive care, but died on Monday.
Although a ceasefire between Israel and militant group Hamas that took effect in October has partially eased restrictions on goods and aid, the United Nations says not enough is entering Gaza where people's needs are great.
