Health Ministry: Fuel crisis suspends hospital departments in Gaza
The Ministry of Health in Gaza has said the continuing 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 medicines, Al Jazeera reported.
“Currently, work has been suspended in many departments within the remaining operating hospitals,” the ministry 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.
