Tag #Cooking Gas Shortage

What are the immediate impacts of the cooking gas shortage in Gaza on the health and well-being of the civilian population?

The ongoing conflict in Gaza has caused a severe cooking gas shortage, forcing families to rely on firewood for cooking. This has led to increased respiratory illnesses and the destruction of green spaces as people resort to burning anything combustible, even plastic and rubber, to prepare food. The lack of cooking gas has not only impacted food security but also disrupted family rituals and created a toxic environment within homes.
