Fuel shortages at Nasser Hospital, Al-Aqsa Hospital and European Hospital are endangering the lives of hundreds of patients, including newborn babies. To prevent the hospitals from closing, MSF teams rush fuel to Nasser and Al-Aqsa hospitals, enabling them to maintain electricity for between 36 and 48 hours.
