    Not to mention it was just 300 liters, the hospital uses from 8 to 12 thousand liters a day.

    Speaking to Al Jazeera, Abu Salmiya said: “Israeli officials reached out to me twice about providing the hospital with fuel: once to offer 2,000 litres [440 gallons] and then another to offer 300 litres [66 gallons]. Keep in mind the hospital needs from 8,000 [1,760 gallons] to 12,000 litres [2,640 gallons] per day.

      I mean, if you knew it would probably be stolen would you send it lots or enough to see what happens?

      If accurate, a small delivery was the right choice
