A man checks on a child who was injured in Israeli bombardment while waiting on a hospital bed for emergency treatment at a trauma ward at Nasser hospital in Khan Yunis in the southern Gaza Strip on October 24, 2023. AFPPIX: The UN agency for Palestinian refugees warned it would be forced to stop working across the Gaza Strip on Wednesday unless there were urgent fuel deliveries to the war-torn territory.
Aid agencies have sounded the alarm about the lack of fuel, which is used to power vital services in Gaza such as hospitals which are relying on generators. Six hospitals across Gaza have already shut down due to the lack of fuel, the World Health Organization said Tuesday. “However, this is only enough to keep ambulances and critical hospital functions running for a little over 24 hours,” WHO said earlier on Tuesday.
