The Gaza Strip's power authority has said that the electricity will run six hours a day against 12-hour cut in the enclave as of Sunday due to shortage of fuel coming from the West Bank city of Ramallah to Gaza's sole power station.
"Officials of the power authority in Ramallah have officially informed us of their inability to provide the Gaza Strip with fuel due to their need of a decision from the finance minister," the Gaza power authority's deputy chief Fathy al-Sheikh said in press statements on Saturday.
Sheikh called on officials to swiftly move to solve the problem of electricity in Gaza which recurred from time to time.
