Gaza’s health ministry has said the ongoing fuel crisis has been affecting the work of the remaining functioning health institutions in the enclave — in particular, the use of their generators, oxygen stations and refrigerators for storing medicine.
“Currently, work has been suspended in many departments within the remaining operating hospitals,” the ministry statement on Telegram said.
It said strict austerity measures are being followed in fuel use at hospitals.
“We repeat our appeal to all concerned, international and humanitarian institutions to intervene and quickly provide the fuel necessary to operate the generators,” the statement concluded.
