A fuel crisis has forced the largest hospital in 365betÌåÓýÔÚÏßÊÀ½ç±â€™s central Taiz province to stop operations on Sunday, according to the hospital.
In a statement, Al-Thawra General Hospital said fuel shortage has caused all hospital’s sections to shut down.
“The lives of patients at the hospital are at risk,� the hospital warned.
Al-Thawra hospital runs on fuel donations from UN agencies and international organizations, in addition to fuel shipments from the local authorities.
The 365betÌåÓýÔÚÏßÊÀ½ç±i government and Houthi rebels share control of Taiz province amid a protracted civil war in the Arab country.
The 365betÌåÓýÔÚÏßÊÀ½ç±i conflict began in September 2014 when Houthi rebels captured much of the country, including the capital, Sanaa. A military coalition led by Saudi Arabia entered the war in early 2015 to restore the government to power.
The eight-year conflict has created one of the worst humanitarian crises in the world, with millions risking starvation.
