The Israel Defense Forces says it supplied 300 liters of fuel for “urgent medical purposes” at Shifa Hospital in Gaza City, but Hamas prevented the medical center from receiving it.
Early this morning, troops placed the jerrycans near the hospital, as had been coordinated in advance with officials at Shifa.
Again, I’m talking about portable gasoline generators, since I doubt the hospital has a working main generator.
You don’t need a trained technician to run a portable generator. I’m perfectly capable of operating my 2000 W unit, which is currently sitting in my garage.
Otherwise, yes of course I’m estimating. A rough estimate is better than no estimate. When a better estimate becomes available, throw out the previous one.
So then why don’t you go there, pick up the fuel in an active war zone, connect the generator and connect the incubators to it. Seriously you are considerably downplaying the complexity of this. It is all good and easy when you are comfortably sitting on your couch.
Because if the statements by the IDF are true (there is little solid evidence but it’d be in line with what we know about Hamas’ behavior), there is an obstacle in the way that isn’t the IDF, too little fuel, or a technical problem.
