Gaza Civil Defense: Fuel Shortage Threatens Rescue Operations, We Call for International Intervention

Gaza – SABA: Asaad Al-Saqqa, Head of the Ambulance Department at the Civil Defense in Khan Younis Governorate, warned on Tuesday that the fuel supply for Civil Defense vehicles in southern Gaza is running out—an issue that "negatively affects all aspects of life in the Strip." The Palestinian news agency "Ma'an" quoted Al-Saqqa as saying that Civil Defense teams are facing major challenges in continuing rescue operations. He called on international organizations to urgently intervene to provide the necessary supplies to ensure the continuation of medical and humanitarian efforts. He added that 'several requests have been submitted to the International Committee of the Red Cross to provide urgent aid,' noting that these requests 'are being denied by the Zionist occupation.'
