Live updatesLive updates, Storm Byron has caused a number of houses, walls and tents to collapse across the war-ravaged Gaza Strip. A number of houses, walls and tents have collapsed in the Gaza Strip since Storm Byron descended upon the enclave destroyed by Israel's genocidal war, killing at least 10 people in past 24 hours.

Israel is bracing itself for heavy downpours and flash floods that Storm Byron is forecast to produce, especially in the coastal areas. The Israel Meteorological Service said on Thursday that rain is likely to cover cities from northern Israel to the Negev in the south, with floods possible in low-lying cities. Up to 150mm (5.9 inches) of rain is estimated in some coastal areas, with wind gusts of up to 90km/h (56mph).

As Storm Byron approaches, flash floods, strong winds and hail are forecast throughout Palestine, including the war-torn Gaza, starting today until Friday evening, according to the Palestinian Meteorological Department.
