The United Nations Relief and Works Agency (UNRWA) for Palestine Refugees in the Near East says if they do not get fuel urgently, they will be forced to halt their operations in the Gaza Strip as of tomorrow night.

They say Israel has been blocking fuel, electricity, food and medical supplies from entering the enclave since the Hamas attack on 7th October.

Meanwhile, the World Health Organisation says almost two-thirds of the region's health facilities have stopped functioning, and the Hamas-led health ministry warned hospitals are hours away from being out of service due to lack of fuel.
