While most cars are running out of fuel, several Palestinians were forced to use cooking oil to turn on their vehicles.
The monthly fuel quantities used to enter Gaza is 10 million liters from Egypt while the remaining quantity, 2 million liters, enters from Israel.
As for industrial fuel, it all comes -- the 12 million liters -- through Israel under coordination with Qatar on a monthly basis.
Amid a lack of fuel, and consequently a lack of electricity, the primitive aspects of life began to resurface in Gaza to overcome difficulties caused by the war and complete siege.
Families, as well as civil defense rescue teams, are using simple tools to remove victims from the rubble, especially decomposed bodies that spread a rotten smell.
Residents have returned to using wood to cook and heat.
Donkey-driven carts are also becoming the main tool for transportation instead of cars, especially for those fleeing northern Gaza toward the south.
As most water well stations are shut down due to a lack of electricity and fuel, Palestinians living close to the beach use the water for showers and for cleaning clothes.
Others are reportedly adding sugar to seawater or boiling it to use for drinking and cooking.
Israel has launched relentless air and ground attacks on the Gaza Strip since a cross-border attack by the Palestinian resistance group, Hamas, on Oct. 7.
Since then, more than 12,000 Palestinians have been killed, including over 8,300 women and children, and more than 30,000 others have been injured, according to the latest figures.
Thousands of buildings, including hospitals, mosques and churches, have also been damaged or destroyed.
The Israeli death toll, meanwhile, is around 1,200, according to official figures.
