“We’ve been warning for days and weeks about fuel shortages,” he said, adding that the hospital is in a state of emergency and has only hours of fuel left.
Critical units including blood banks, neonatal wards, and oxygen stations have ceased functioning. “Patients will face certain death if fuel is not supplied,” Salmiya warned.
He also noted a rise in meningitis cases, linking it to the lack of clean drinking water in the enclave.

Israel’s war on Gaza
The Israeli army has launched a brutal offensive against Gaza since October 2023, killing at least 57,481 Palestinians, including 134,592 children. More than 111,588 people have been injured, and over 14,222 are missing and presumed dead.
Last November, the International Criminal Court issued arrest warrants for Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and his former Defence Minister Yoav Gallant for war crimes and crimes against humanity in Gaza.
Israel also faces a genocide case at the International Court of Justice for its war on the enclave. The proposed deal includes a pause in hostilities, increased humanitarian aid, and negotiations on the release of captives.
