The Energy Authority in Gaza announced that two power generators have been shut down after Egypt has stopped fuel delivery as the Palestinian Authority (PA) froze all bank transfers to Egypt for the purchase of fuel used to operate the besieged coastal enclave’s sole power plant.
In a brief statement on Saturday the Energy Authority in Gaza pointed out that the Egyptian fuel has not been entered into the blockaded Gaza Strip over the past two days. This has affected the power plant’s capacity to operate the electricity generators.
The statement revealed that efforts are being exerted for transferring payments via different ways in order to resume importing fuel from Egypt and to re-operate the power plant.
