Israel hinders fuel delivery to Gaza hospitals, says OCHA

RAMALLAH: The United Nations Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs in (OCHA) reported today that humanitarian convoys have been unable to deliver fuel to hospitals in the Gaza Strip due to Israeli obstacles.

In a tweet on its X account, the UN office announced that two-thirds of the coordinated humanitarian missions in Gaza are facing obstacles or delays by Israeli occupation authorities. On average, it said, each mission encountered delays of at least five hours before being allowed to proceed.

As a result, vital supplies, equipment, and fuel for backup generators in hospitals have not been delivered.
