The Israel Defense Forces says it supplied 300 liters of fuel for “urgent medical purposes” at Shifa Hospital in Gaza City, but Hamas prevented the medical center from receiving it.

Early this morning, troops placed the jerrycans near the hospital, as had been coordinated in advance with officials at Shifa.

    There’s a video floating around of Hamas turning away the fuel. Pretty sad situation

      Sure, but it’s such a small amount of fuel for a hospital that it makes no sense to even do it.

      Should Hamas give them all the fuel they could use? Sure! But I’m wondering how vulnerable they’ll be if they also have no fuel to fight back against the indiscriminate killings from the IDF…
