The Government Media Office in Gaza highlighted on Saturday that Israeli bombing destroyed 80% of rescue vehicles and equipment, noting that there is no longer fuel to move the rest.

In a statement, the Office confirmed that "the equipment and mechanisms belonging to the relief, emergency, and civil defense teams cannot reach disaster and massacre areas."

The statement pointed out that some Gazans have remained "for days and weeks under the rubble without those crews being able to dig them up, due to the targeting and destruction."

It underlined that "the humanitarian situation has reached a catastrophic stage" in the Gaza Strip.

The Office held "the [Israeli] occupation and the international community, especially the American administration, represented by President Joe Biden and his Secretary of State, Anthony Blinken, fully responsible for the genocidal war that they agreed to and gave the occupation the green light to carry out silently."

Elsewhere, the Government Media Office in Gaza stressed the need for the entry of 1,000 aid trucks into the Strip and relief on a daily basis, including one million liters of fuel.

At least 15,523 Palestinians were killed in Gaza since "Israel's" aggression on the Strip started on October 7, the Ministry of Health in Gaza confirmed on Sunday, noting that 70% of those killed are women and children.

According to the Ministry's spokesperson, Ashraf al-Qudra, over 41,000 people have been wounded by the Israeli strikes. He reported that in recent hours, 316 Palestinians were killed and another 664 have been wounded and rushed to devastated hospitals for care, noting that "many others are still under the rubble."
