Post: WHO Warns of Catastrophic Threat to Health System in Gaza Due to Shortage of Fuel

Geneva, The World Health Organization (WHO) on Thursday warned that severe fuel shortages in the Gaza Strip could have a catastrophic impact due to severe lack of fuel. " Further disruption to health services is imminent in Gaza due to a severe lack of fuel. Only 90,000L of fuel entered Gaza yesterday. The health sector alone needs 80,000L daily, forcing the WHO and its partners to make impossible choices", Director-General of WHO Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus posted on X platform. Ghebreyesus stressed the need for fuel to prevent services from grinding to a halt, warning that with European Gaza Hospital out of service since 2 July, losing more hospitals in the Strip would be catastrophic.
