GAZA CITY, Palestine (AA) - The UN Palestinian refugee agency warned Tuesday that operations will stop in the Gaza Strip late Wednesday if fuel shipments are not allowed into the blockaded territory.

“If we do not get fuel urgently, we will be forced to halt our operations in the Gaza Strip as of tomorrow night,” UNRWA said in a statement.

“Gaza operation will end tomorrow if we don’t get fuel,” it added.

Israel has launched a relentless bombardment campaign on the Gaza Strip following a cross-border attack by the Palestinian resistance group, Hamas, putting the territory’s 2.3 million residents under total siege and a blockade of food, fuel and medical supplies.

More than 7,100 people have been killed in the latest conflict, including at least 5,791 Palestinians and 1,400 Israelis.
