Power Cut at Nuseirat Camp Hospital in Central Gaza After Fuel Runs Out

Staff say generators stopped, leaving only units on backup batteries operating.

Overview

  • Palestine News Agency reported the outage on Dec. 25, a dispatch carried by Kyodo News and published by regional Japanese outlets.
  • The hospital warns the blackout poses a severe threat to patients in intensive care and pediatric wards.
  • Fuel depletion led to a complete halt of generators, with most wards losing electricity except those supported by backup batteries.
  • The facility appealed to international and humanitarian organizations to press Israel to permit fuel entry for generators.
  • The articles note Israel is restricting entry of goods tied to the Gaza peace plan's first phase, with no details on when relief might reach the hospital.
