Around 7,000 patients and wounded Palestinians are facing imminent death with Gaza hospitals set to collapse amid lack of fuel, the spokesman for the Palestinian ministry of health told Al Jazeera.
Doctors and health officials have been warning for days that fuel is set to run out completely by Thursday.
They say this will lead to the instant death of thousands of people, including newborn babies in incubators, wounded people in ICU units, and kidney dialysis patients, amongst others.
