Gaza City, August 2 (RHC)-- Large parts of Gaza remain without power or running water after Israel bombed the area’s lone power plant earlier this week. Doctors and medical personnel are warning that the lack of electricity, combined with dwindling medical supplies, have created a humanitarian crisis in the besieged Gaza Strip.

The UN’s Deputy Secretary-General, Jan Eliasson, pleaded for an end to the bombing. Jan Eliasson said: "How can you run a hospital without clean water? How can you keep food if you can’t have refrigerators? Everything we take for granted is gone. So we have an unusually dangerous situation from a humanitarian perspective. And I don’t think we need more reminders of the importance of stopping this horror. We have to see the end of fighting."
