Fuel that has entered Gaza from Egypt through the Rafah border crossing is “not at all enough”, the United Nations agency for supporting Palestinian refugees said, according to AFP.

“This is the equivalent of half a truck! Not at all enough. Much more is needed. Fuel is being used as weapon of war, this must stop,” UNRWA said on X, formerly Twitter.

In a separate post, UNRWA confirmed receiving 23,027 litres (6,083 gallons) of fuel, saying it met only “nine per cent” of what the agency needs daily to sustain lifesaving work.
