Perhaps Hamas could help by returning some of the fuel they stole?
Or maybe just giving hospitals some from their own fuel reserves?
I wonder if there's a reason that fuel hasn't been bombed yet. calling it hidden is the height of comedy.
fuel shield > human shield?
My speculation is that the IDF will threaten Hamas by saying "give your fuel to the hospitals or we blow up your storage tanks", then bomb it after Hamas refuses. After that happens I think it's likely that some fuel will be allowed to enter Gaza.
I deleted my comment because you made a good point.
Why would you ever admit someone from the other side made a good point? Beta move, bro
Sigmas admit when they’re wrong. Chads’ apologize. But you know that, right?
Unrwa took the 1st one back, and the 2nd one is an idf claim with no proof that should not be trusted.
This is the best summary I could come up with:
UNITED NATIONS, Oct 24 (Reuters) - Twenty trucks were unable to transport aid to Palestinian civilians in the besieged Gaza Strip on Tuesday, the United Nations said as U.S. President Joe Biden dubbed humanitarian efforts to deliver help via a crossing from Egypt as "not fast enough."
"We hope the materials can enter Gaza tomorrow," said U.N. aid spokesperson Eri Kaneko.
It has become the focus of efforts to deliver aid since Israel imposed a "total siege" of the enclave in retaliation for an attack by Hamas militants on Oct. 7.
Senior U.N. aid official Lynn Hastings had earlier told the Security Council that 20 trucks were due to cross on Tuesday.
White House national security spokesman John Kirby on Tuesday described Israel's concerns as legitimate.
The U.N. agency providing aid to Palestinians in Gaza, UNRWA, warned on Tuesday that it would have to halt its operations on Wednesday night if there were no fuel deliveries.
