Power outage across Gaza as fuel runs out: Hamas

Power outage across Gaza as fuel runs out: Hamas

Gaza City (Palestinian Territories) (AFP) - A shortage of fuel halted the production of electricity across the Gaza Strip on Friday, said the energy authority of the Islamist movement Hamas, which controls the Palestinian enclave.

"We have completely stopped the operation of (Gaza's sole) power plant this morning at 6:00 am (0400 GMT) because we don't have a single litre of fuel," Fathi el-Sheikh Khalil, the authority's deputy chairman, told AFP.

An AFP correspondent in the Gaza Strip said the electricity supply had been cut off across most of the territory.

Khalil blamed the power outage on Egypt's destruction of tunnels used for bringing fuel to Gaza and accused the Western-backed Palestinian Authority of charging Hamas too much for its fuel.

Gee whiz. The Hamas'istan terrorists are unable to provide basic necessities for the “pal-arabs who voted them into office.

The islamist terrorist encampment in “Palestine” is another of those lovely islamist paradises where the calendar perpetually identifies that we’re living in the 7th century as opposed to much of relevant first world living in the 21st century. There is this thing in the west that we call “freedom of religion”. It’s a precept that doesn’t exist in the medieval world of islamism.

Odd, that the so-called “Palestinians” live in squalor and fear. They have an entire UN funded welfare system dedicated to their continued use for reviling the dirty kafir who support their very existence.
