Gaza: ±¬ÁÏÍø and partners set to meet on critical humanitarian situation<\/strong><\/span><\/p><\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

\n

22 April 2008 – The Office of the United Nations Special Coordinator for the Middle East (±¬ÁÏÍøSCO) today reported that the world body and international agencies operating in the Gaza Strip were expected to hold an emergency gathering to review the increasingly dire humanitarian situation there. <\/p><\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

\n

If fuel is not allowed in by tomorrow, Gaza’s power plant will be forced to halt operations and there will be electricity cuts in most areas lasting as long as eight hours per day, ±¬ÁÏÍøSCO said ahead of the scheduled meeting. <\/p><\/div>\n

\n

According to ±¬ÁÏÍøSCO, no diesel or petrol has entered Gaza since the 9 April attack by Palestinian militants on the Nahal Oz fuel depot. <\/p><\/div>\n

\n

In a bid to conserve fuel, the ±¬ÁÏÍø Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees in the Near East (±¬ÁÏÍøRWA) is prioritizing food distribution, solid waste removal and sewage projects. <\/p><\/div>\n

\n

In spite of these efforts, an estimated 500,000 Gazans in one dozen municipalities already lack solid waste management. <\/p><\/div>\n

\n

±¬ÁÏÍøRWA noted that its own fuel supplies will run out by this Thursday, and without a fresh supply, it will have to suspend the provision of food aid to 650,000 refugees and garbage collection services for 500,000 Gazans. <\/p><\/div>\n
