Ministry warns more generators could shut down due to lack of spare parts, calls for urgent supplies<\/p>\n

\n

Several electricity generators at hospitals in the Gaza Strip have stopped operating due to shortages of oil, spare parts and fuel, the Health Ministry said Sunday.<\/p>\n

The ministry said several generators had stopped working in recent days, warning that shortages of generator oil were making it increasingly difficult to maintain electricity supplies at hospitals.<\/p>\n

It said the limited quantities of oil recently allowed into Gaza by Israel were only sufficient for emergency needs, while hospitals require around 2,500 liters per month.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe remaining generators are operating around the clock under difficult technical and mechanical conditions and are unable to meet the electricity needs of all life-saving departments,\u201d the ministry said.<\/p>\n

It warned that more generators could stop working without urgent oil changes and called for the immediate entry of essential supplies to keep them operational.<\/p>\n

Generators have become the main source of electricity for Gaza\u2019s hospitals amid a prolonged power outage, while shortages of fuel and spare parts have repeatedly disrupted their operation.<\/p>\n

Israel\u2019s war on Gaza since October 2023 has killed more than 73,000 Palestinians and injured over 174,000, while causing widespread destruction across the enclave, according to Gaza authorities.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
