Israeli authorities allowed on Wednesday the entry of Qatar-funded fuel shipments into the blockaded Gaza Strip.
According to Hebrew-language news outlets Israeli Army Minister Avigdor Lieberman decided to allow fuel supplies to enter the besieged Gaza Strip.
” Upon recommendations from security agencies it has been decided to resume Qatari fuel shipments into Gaza” Lieberman said.
Ten days ago Lieberman ordered a halt to fuel shipments into Gaza citing “violence” along border with the Gaza Strip.
It is noteworthy that Gaza’s daily demand of power is between 450 to 500 Megawatts. However the enclave has struggled for 11 years with power shortages due to limited fuel access and degraded infrastructure.
