The United Nations has issued a warning that the fuel shortage in the Gaza Strip has reached critical levels, severely impacting essential services and humanitarian operations. Fuel is crucial for powering hospitals, water and sanitation systems, ambulances, bakeries producing fresh bread, and the transportation of essential goods across Gaza. Multiple UN agencies, including the World Health Organization (WHO), the Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA), the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP), the United Nations Population Fund (UNFPA), the United Nations Office for Project Services (UNOPS), the United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees (UNRWA), and the World Food Programme (WFP), have jointly called for consistent and sufficient fuel supplies to sustain life-saving operations. The shortage threatens to exacerbate the humanitarian crisis in the war-ravaged Palestinian territory.
