⚡️💬 NEW - Dr. Mimi Syed warns that after more than 100 days of Israel blocking fuel, Gaza’s health system is on the verge of collapse.

Without fuel, life-saving services — from intensive care units to dialysis machines, water pumps, and incubators — are shutting down. The UN echoed the urgency, noting fuel is paramount to keeping people alive, yet Israel continues to block critical humanitarian access. Just yesterday, Israeli authorities denied several UN coordination requests to retrieve fuel.

Dr. Syed is an American emergency physician who has volunteered on two medical missions to Gaza. She says she can no longer reach her colleagues on the ground due to the accompanying telecommunications blackout — a collapse the UN attributes to Israeli military damage and sustained obstruction. Since April, Israeli authorities have rejected more than 20 requests from humanitarian partners to access and repair Gaza’s main fiber lines.
