Today in Gaza, they are at the end of the energy reserves they have left after the last Hamas- Governed power plant shut down Tuesday. The people living in Gaza have been limited to 6 hours of electricity a day; however, they currently don’t have enough fuel to last a third of a day. This is a major concern, like the article states, for those who are in the hospital, their survival depends on the ability of the machines to help heal or help keep these patients alive. A specific example was of dialysis patients who needed their blood to be filtered by machinery. This has become such a crisis that UNRWA states that if things keep going the way they are in Gaza, it will be unlivable by 2020. http://www.aljazeera.com/news/2017/04/power-crisis-leaves-gaza-main-hospital-brink-170418143913487.html
