A third convoy of humanitarian aid trucks delivered essential supplies, including water, food, and medicine, to the besieged Gaza Strip on Monday. Despite this relief effort, the United Nations has issued a dire warning: fuel was not included in the latest shipments, and existing reserves are expected to run out within the next two days.
Footage captured by a CGTN Stringer on Monday shows residents in Gaza lining up at a gas station, struggling to secure limited fuel supplies. With the shortage becoming increasingly acute, many people are resorting to cooking outdoors using firewood, highlighting the severe energy crisis gripping the region.
The absence of fuel in the humanitarian aid underscores the urgent need for comprehensive support to address Gaza's multifaceted challenges. As fuel reserves dwindle, the daily lives of residents are increasingly impacted, raising concerns about the sustainability of current relief efforts.
