CBS: U.N. says it’s unable to make aid deliveries to Gaza due to lack of fuel
The United Nations said it would not be able to deliver basic necessities to the Gaza Strip through the Rafah border crossing with Egypt on Friday due to communication collapsing in the Palestinian enclave and a lack of fuel. The World Health Organization warned that the paralyzed aid would mean the “immediate possibility of starvation” for the roughly 2.3 million people living in the embattled region.
