Hospitals in the southern Gaza Strip "only have enough fuel to run health services...for three more days" says WHO chief Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus, who blames closed border crossings for the shortage. "Fuel that we expected to be allowed in today has not been allowed in" he says, explaining that, if supplies are not able to get into Gaza, the WHO "cannot sustain our life-saving support." SOUNDBITE
