Two hospitals in northern Gaza face a potential shutdown amid a severe fuel shortage, local health officials warned, Anadolu reports.

“The Indonesian Hospital is facing a severe fuel shortage, which threatens to completely halt medical services if Israel continues to prevent the entry of fuel, leaving patients at the risk of death,” hospital director Mourwan Sultan told Anadolu.

He said the hospital’s intensive care unit has reached its maximum capacity, with the ward filled with critically ill patients, including 10 relying on ventilators.

“The operating rooms are running non-stop around the clock,” he said. “If Israel continues to block fuel deliveries, medical services could come to a complete halt, condemning these patients to death.”
