UN refugee agency gets initial fuel delivery, says needs a lot more
The head of UNRWA confirmed receipt of 23,000 liters of fuel via the Rafah crossing but stressed the need for more to enter Gaza. He said that Israeli authorities permitted the fuel solely for aid transportation, excluding its use for broader humanitarian purposes like medical care, water facilities, or UNRWA operations. Philippe Lazzarini reiterated UNRWA's daily requirement of 160,000 liters for fundamental humanitarian tasks.
