The humanitarian crisis in the Gaza Strip, exacerbated by a 16-year blockade by Israel and recent ground operations and bombardment, continues to worsen due to a fuel shortage causing a complete telecommunications and internet blackout. This crisis has affected the region's main telecommunications companies, Paltel and Jawwal, and more than two million people in the enclave. The fuel shortage has led to a severe water crisis, with the UNRWA warning that 70% of the population will not have access to clean water, leading to a surge in diseases tied to poor sanitation. The communications blackout has halted cross-border aid operations at the Rafah Crossing, making it impossible to manage or coordinate humanitarian aid convoys. Amid the ongoing Israel-Hamas war, Gaza's death toll has reached over 11,000, with the UN warning of a potential increase in deaths from dehydration and waterborne diseases.
