The Director General of the Palestinian Ministry of Health in Gaza, Mounir al-Barash, announced on Tuesday that the Israeli occupation forces "deliberately obstructed the entry of a UN humanitarian convoy carrying critical medical supplies and fuel" into the besieged Strip.

Al-Barash highlighted that Gaza’s fuel reserves "are only sufficient for the next 24 hours," emphasizing that "the critical shortage of both fuel and medicine severely hinders efforts to save those injured in the occupation's ongoing massacres."

He added that ambulances are now "out of fuel, preventing the rescue of the wounded," accusing the occupation of "deliberately targeting as many displaced people in shelters as possible," further warning that delays in intervention "endanger the lives of the injured," stating, "We rely on God and our resilient health workers to persevere and continue."

In conclusion, al-Barash expressed his gratitude to all the medical delegations arriving from various Arab countries, recognizing their vital support and solidarity during this critical time.

On day 319 of the genocide in Gaza, the total number of Palestinians killed since the Israeli aggression on the Gaza Strip started on October 7 has risen to 40,173, in addition to 92,857 injuries, according to the daily report published by the Health Ministry in Gaza on Tuesday.

"Israel" committed three massacres in 24 hours, killing 34 Palestinians and injuring 114 others.

While some were transported to partially functioning hospitals, many victims remain trapped beneath the rubble with rescue crews unable to reach them.
