The Palestine Red Crescent Society has announced that services at the Al-Quds Hospital in Gaza City have been reduced due to a severe shortage of fuel for its generators, Anadolu Agency reports.

It said the move aims to conserve the consumption of fuel “that was supposed to run out today.”

PRCS stated that under this procedure, the surgery unit, the oxygen-generating unit and the radiology unit will be shut down as the hospital is drawing power from a smaller generator.

The hospital administration has set a schedule for using electricity with an average of two hours daily in each building to allow displaced people to cook and charge their cell phones, it added.
