In August 2024, it was reported that the Sheikh Radwan Lagoon had become polluted by sewage and stagnant rainwater as the result of the area's sanitation systems being damaged by the Gaza war. The lack of infrastructure had led to increase in water-born disease, including polio, hepatitis A, and cholera, and skin infections.[27][28][29] The United Nations established vaccination clinic in Sheikh Radwan in November 2024 to distribute the polio vaccine to Palestinian children. The clinic was bombed a few hours after opening, injuring two adults and four children.
