Gaza's hospitals will become 'mass graves' if they cannot get fuel to run emergency generators, doctors said yesterday in a dire warning as Israel announced preparations for a deadly ground assault to crush . Hospitals have been overwhelmed by casualties as the death toll rose to more than 6,500 Palestinians on Wednesday, including 2,700 children according to the Hamas-run health ministry, and almost a third have closed due to damage from air strikes or a lack of fuel. The crisis was part of a humanitarian catastrophe that saw the UN admit it could be forced to stop its aid work in the territory.
