The Gaza Ministry of Health warned that the oil supply required to operate generators in hospitals within the enclave has been completely depleted. The ministry stated that this threatens the immediate mechanical failure and shutdown of the remaining generators, which require over 2,500 liters (660 gallons) of oil per month to keep them running. The Ministry of Health called on the international community to fulfill its humanitarian responsibilities and intervene immediately to ensure the delivery of necessary oil and spare parts to avoid power outages that would halt many vital life-saving departments.
