In the southern Gaza Strip, hospitals are facing a critical fuel shortage, with only three days' worth of fuel left, according to the head of the World Health Organization. This dire situation is attributed to closed border crossings, preventing the delivery of essential supplies. Israel's recent military incursion into the city of Rafah and seizure of the nearby crossing into Egypt, a vital route for aid, has exacerbated the crisis.
WHO Director General Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus emphasized the gravity of the situation, warning that without fuel, humanitarian operations would cease, further exacerbating the already dire conditions in the region. He noted that one of the hospitals in Rafah, Al-Najjar, had already ceased operations due to ongoing hostilities and the military operation in the area.

Tedros called for an immediate end to the border closures and military operations, stressing the urgent need to expand humanitarian efforts to reach thousands of people in desperate need of essential services. The situation is compounded by the ongoing conflict in the region, with Israel conducting airstrikes on Rafah amid ceasefire talks in Cairo.
The World Health Organization, based in Geneva, is working tirelessly to address the escalating humanitarian crisis in Gaza, but the challenges posed by border closures and military actions continue to impede their efforts. As the conflict persists, the toll on civilians, particularly women and children, continues to mount, underscoring the urgent need for a sustainable ceasefire and concerted international efforts to alleviate the suffering of those affected by the crisis.
