Israel’s military suggested on Tuesday that the United Nations ask Hamas for fuel supplies after the U.N. agency providing aid to Palestinian civilians in the Gaza Strip warned it would have to halt operations on Wednesday night if no fuel was delivered.

The agency, known as UNRWA, posted its warning on social media on Tuesday. The Israel Defense Forces reposted it and said that Hamas militants have more than 500,000 litres of fuel in tanks inside besieged Gaza.

“Ask Hamas if you can have some,” the IDF wrote.

    They do literally have a government. Did you really think they don’t? They even had elections until Hamas stopped those.

        I’m glad Hamas wasn’t in your high school, canceling elections.

        If you think Gaza doesn’t have a government then you are just factually incorrect and idk what else to tell you.

        It’s like if you came on here and acted confidently aloof about saying that Mars is blue. You’re just wrong on a very basic level.
