<p>The UK is concerned about reports that Beit Hanoun Hospital has been partially
closed in order to rationalise fuel. The UK continues to monitor the humanitarian
situation in Gaza closely. The UK is supporting approximately 1 million Gazans by
addressing critical water, sanitation and hygiene needs through the United Nations
Children’s Fund (UNICEF), and is a long-term supporter of the UN Relief and Works
Agency for Palestinian Refugees (UNRWA), which provides basic services to 1.3 million
people in Gaza, including basic health care. The UK will continue to urge all the
parties to prioritise progress towards reaching a durable solution for Gaza and to
take the necessary practical steps to improve conditions, including restoring the
availability of electricity as a matter of urgency.</p>
