Fuel shortage forced closure of six out of seven bakeries in Deir el-Balah
Only one of seven bakeries operated in Deir el-Balah yesterday due to the lack of fuel. We are talking about the bakeries that are serving 1.8 million Palestinians who are squeezed in the middle of the Gaza Strip after being displaced multiple times.
The World Food Programme (WFP) has been providing those bakeries with fuel, flour, salt and yeast. But there is a shortage of fuel now and the bakeries face the risk of shutting down.
So, the humanitarian situation remains dire despite the ongoing ceasefire negotiations.
At least five people, including three children, were killed overnight after a bombing of a residential house in the Jabalia refugee camp in northern Gaza.
There have also been a couple of air strikes in southern Gaza’s Khan Younis and artillery shelling in the Nuseirat refugee camp in central Gaza.
