Gaza hospitals stopping some services as UN warns fuel runs out tonight – BBC News

Hospitals in Gaza are stopping all but life-saving operations, with fuel supplies needed to power medical equipment running low. The UN – the biggest aid provider on the ground in Gaza – says that unless it gets fresh supplies, its fuel will run out tonight. On Tuesday, only eight aid vehicles were allowed to enter Gaza, while agencies say at least 100 lorries a day are needed. Israel is stopping new fuel supplies from entering Gaza, as they accuse Hamas of stockpiling hundreds of thousands of litres meant for humanitarian purposes. “Fuel deliveries must be let in to ensure people have clean drinking water, hospitals can remain open and life-saving aid operations can continue,“ The United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees (UNRWA) said on social media platform X.
