Members of a Palestinian family with children are seen around the truck they live in, which has been abandoned since fuel is not easily available as Israeli attacks continue in Rafah, Gaza, on January 22, 2024.There will be no more running hospitals, water processing or sanitation services in Gaza within the next couple of days if Israel continues its horrific blockade of fuel and all other forms of aid to Gaza, a UN official has warned.
“It’s not easy to be transported around Gaza at the moment. People have very limited access to cash, there’s very limited transportation. So the means are just so little for people to even be able to facilitate such movement,” said Wateridge. “Nobody knows what to do. Everybody is asking the same question: Where do we go, and where is safety?” she continued. “I can see the border of Egypt from here. That’s how far south we are pushed. This is the last remaining place in the Gaza strip that hasn’t been destroyed. And if Israeli forces continue this military action, every place will be destroyed in the Gaza strip. There is nowhere left.”
