Power-Cut continues; Gaza bleeds

GAZA (Alresalah.ps) -- Gazans' suffrage has never stopped, as they are sinking in darkness for more than 16 hours a day. Their trade also is left down, and many patients are dead due to the shortage of power.

Although a deal, signed between both the Egyptian government and the Gaza government a week ago, facilitated the power to get to Gaza, the solely Gaza power planet stopped working for two months because of the lack of fuel, smuggled through the tunnels on the Palestinian-Egyptian borders

It is worth mentioning that the Gaza Strip depends on three main resources to get electricity: the Israeli Company, the Egyptian Company and the only Gaza power planet.  

Pain

I lost 1500$. I, however, thank God that none of my family members was fired, said Adel Kahlout. My home burnt when the power came on, resulting in electrical circuit, Kahlout added.

We hope that people concerned would work on solving the power-cut problems, said the poor man, that paralyzes our lives.

I was impelled to buy a new generator to run my new, broken refrigerator, said Abu Adham, 50 years old. It was broken down three months after I bought it because of the power-cut.

We cannot store food because of this problem, too.

We are living on cans of food nowadays, said the old man.

Fires are being escalated every day in the besieged strip, reports said. And many electronic devices are being broken by time.

Abu Ibrahim Wadi refrained himself from selling fish and frozen vegetables because of the ongoing power-cut.

Massive losses

When the fuel shortage ends in the Gaza strip, the power-cut will definitely end, said Ibrahim Najjar, an expert working for the Gaza power planet.

Minister of Foreign Affairs, Mohammed Awad, said that Egypt promised to facilitate the movement of the Qatari fuel to Gaza.

The Egyptian side informed the Palestinian authorities that all procedures are considered to ease pumping fuel to Gaza.

It is worth mentioning that Gaza has been subjogated to an inhumane siege, imposed on the freedom of movement of goods and power to Gaza by Israel.
