Near-Total Paralysis Threatens the Collapse of Essential Services

Gaza Municipality Issues Urgent Appeal for Vehicles and Fuel

A severe shortage of vehicles, fuel, and spare parts needed for maintenance has created a major crisis for Gaza Municipality, significantly hindering its ability to deliver essential services to the city. This situation has worsened following the destruction of approximately 134 municipal vehicles about 80% of the entire fleet—by the Israeli occupation, alongside the continued unavailability of fuel and lubricants required to operate service vehicles and key facilities.

Gaza Municipality urgently appeals to the international community and humanitarian organizations to take immediate action and provide emergency humanitarian assistance. The municipality seeks support to mitigate the worsening catastrophe facing the city due to the ongoing genocidal war.

For the year 2025, the municipality has estimated its urgent needs at approximately 130 vehicles, including 25 heavy-duty vehicles, 25 medium-sized vehicles, and 80 light vehicles. It also requires around 3.2 million liters of fuel, 10,000 liters of specialized vehicle oil, and 9,000 liters of generator oil.

The unavailability of vehicles and fuel is further aggravating the city’s humanitarian crisis, leading to the accumulation of over 250,000 tons of solid waste in the city center, a critical breakdown in water and sanitation services, and major challenges in reopening roads devastated by widespread destruction and in removing rubble blocking vital streets.
