Gaza survivors: ‘We have no water left’
12 October 2023 11:41 BST
Gaza residents tell MEE correspondent Mohammed al-Hajjar, who is on the ground in Gaza, that the situation on the ground has escalated, and that survivors are struggling to find any clean water.
“We don’t have any electricity or water left, people need it not just to drink but to clean themselves,” one resident said.
“People are queuing up to get water, there are only three trucks which have clean water to serve the whole of Gaza. people are also waking up early to queue outside bakeries just to get some bread,” he added.
In central Gaza City, people are scrambling to find any source of food, as they are unable to cook or make any food at home after Israel cut off all electricity supplies to the besieged enclave.
