The health ministry has warned that hospitals, health centres and the only oxygen station in Gaza City Governorate have stopped working due to a lack of fuel, Al Jazeera reports.
“This exposes the lives of dozens of sick and wounded people to inevitable death,” it said in a statement, adding that medicines stored in refrigerators will be damaged due to a lack of diesel fuel operating generators.
“We appeal to all relevant, international and humanitarian institutions to intervene quickly to bring in the necessary fuel, in addition to the electric generators and spare parts needed for maintenance.”
