The #IDF responded to a statement by the #UN agency helping Palestinian #refugees that it would stop humanitarian operations in #Gaza tonight unless Israel allows #fuel to be delivered to the strip.

In X, the Israeli army posted a photo of supposedly fuel tanks in Gaza, accompanied by the caption: “These fuel tanks are located in Gaza. They contain more than 500,000 liters of fuel. Ask #Hamas if you can have some."

At the same time, military expert and former British intelligence officer Frank Ledwidge, commenting on this photo, told the BBC that he saw no military reasons why the group would accumulate fuel in an open area that could be subject to Israeli air strikes .

In his opinion, it is more likely that the fuel is stored underground in Hamas' network of tunnels, which experts believe extends up to 500 kilometers.

Hamas cannot use gasoline or diesel fuel in the rockets it fires at Israel because they require other substances, Ledwidge said.

JERUSALEM — Twenty trucks carrying medicine, medical supplies and food crossed into #Gaza on Saturday morning from #Egypt, marking the first humanitarian aid to arrive in the territory since an Israeli bombardment campaign began two weeks ago.

As the trucks made their way through the Rafah border, hundreds of people gathered at the Gaza side, hoping to escape the violence that has beset the Palestinian territory. It was unclear whether anyone would be able to leave.

For two weeks since the Gaza-based militant group Hamas launched a wave of deadly attacks on Israel, Israel's retaliatory airstrikes have damaged and destroyed thousands of buildings across Gaza, including homes, schools and U.N.-operated shelters. Israeli military officials say the strikes are targeted at Hamas militants and infrastructure.

An Israeli siege has cut off the flow of #food, #water, #electricity and #fuel to the territory, intensifying a humanitarian crisis.

Egypt-Gaza border crossing opens, allowing first aid deliveries to reach Palestinians

The 20 truckloads of medical supplies and food are a small fraction of the aid that humanitarian groups say is needed. Israel's siege of Gaza, a response to the Oct. 7 Hamas attacks, is ongoing.

How the hell can they say this with straight face : The European Commission cannot condemn #Israel's total blockade of the #Gaza Strip, including the cutting off of #water, #electricity and #fuel supplies to all Gazans - and only calls on Tel Aviv to "respect international law", said EC spokesman Eric Mamer, answering questions from European journalists at a briefing in #Brussels.

At the briefing, the Italian journalist recalled that EC chief Ursula von der Leyen last October "accused #Russia of attacks on #Ukraine's infrastructure, describing them as 'war crimes'".
This was followed by a question as to whether the European Commission was prepared to call "the decision to cut off water, electricity and fuel to women and children in the Gaza Strip an act of pure terror".

Mamer replied that von der Leyen's statement was made "in a very specific context and in the situation we are in, where, I would remind you, attacks from Gaza against Israel continue and Israel is in a situation where it is defending itself in an extremely difficult theatre of war. So we can't assess here exactly what Israel needs to do to fight the Hamas terrorists. But we certainly say very clearly that it must respect international law in this fight, and that every effort must be made to ensure the safety of civilians".

#Israel on Monday cut off #electricity, #food, #fuel and #water (F24 'forgot' medicine and medical equipment) from the #Gaza Strip.

The humanitarian situation in #Gaza has deteriorated drastically, but the 2.3 million #Palestinians there have nowhere to flee to.

PS. F24 also failed to mention that Israel bombed the only way out of Gaza. Rafah border to Egypt today. But who am I to correct a respectful world news media /Farhad

Perfectly fine and acceptable : Israeli attacks on hospitals in the #Gaza Strip have led to the collapse of health services, According to the Palestine Red Crescent Society.

Five hospitals have been hit by Israeli strikes and there is a shortage of #medicines, #equipment, #electricity and #fuel for generators due to the total #blockade of the sector.

The #hospitals are working only four hours a day to care for the wounded.

Abandoned #Superyacht Is Still Burning $2,000 A Day In Just #Fuel #Costs

source: https://www.msn.com/en-us/autos/news/abandoned-superyacht-is-still-burning-2000-a-day-in-just-fuel-costs/ar-AA1hAszw

The boat needs to be constantly air-conditioned in order to keep the hardwood floors and leather interior pristine which ensures #Antigua receives top #dollar when — if — it ever sells. That means its diesel generators must constantly be running, burning through $2,000 in fuel every day.

The #message from #Ecuador is clear: people will #vote to keep #oil in the ground

source: https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2023/aug/24/the-message-from-ecuador-is-clear-people-will-vote-to-keep-oil-in-the-ground

The #referendum result obliges the state oil company to dismantle operations – 12 drilling platforms and 225 wells that produce up to 57,000 barrels a day – in block 43 of the Ishpingo-Tambococha-Tiputini (ITT) project, an area of the Amazon rainforest famed for its ecological diversity, and which is home to two tribes that live in voluntary isolation. With more than 5.4 million votes in favour of halting production and 3.7 million against, this is the most decisive democratic victory against the #fossil #fuel industry in Latin #America and, arguably, the #world.

#Biden administration approves controversial #Willow #oil project in #Alaska, which has galvanized online activism

Source: https://edition.cnn.com/2023/03/13/politics/willow-project-alaska-oil-biden-approval-climate/index.html

Lena Moffitt, the executive director of Evergreen Action, which advocates for strong #climate change policies, called the approval “an unacceptable departure from President Biden’s promises to the American people on climate and environmental justice.”

The price of oil is more important than election promises or our future.

A large #cruiseShip can use up to 250 tons. Per day. In terms of regular #gasoline, that would be about 80,645 gallons; more #fuel than you'll use in an entire lifetime of driving cars.
