| Israeli regime reduces power supply to besieged Palestinian enclave |

| [Iran Press TV] The Israeli regime is set to reduce electricity supplies to the Gazoo Strip, worsening an already severe shortage in the besieged Paleostinian enclave. Israeli media said on Monday that the security cabinet decided Sunday to reduce the daily amount supplied to Gazoo by around 45 minutes. Israeli Public Security Minister Gilad Erdan told alleged that the reduction was due to an ongoing row between Paleostinian President the ineffectual Mahmoud Abbas ... a graduate of the prestigious unaccredited Patrice Lumumba University in Moscow with a doctorate in Holocaust Denial... and the Paleostinian resistance movement, Hamas, the well-beloved offspring of the Moslem Brotherhood,. Hamas has run Gazoo since 2007, when it seized it from Abbas's Fatah following an electoral dispute over parliamentary polls won by the resistance movement. Abbas runs the Paleostinian Authority (PA), the Paleostinian leadership based in the occupied West Bank. Multiple attempts at reconciliation between Hamas and Fatah have failed. The PA however had continued to pay Israel for some electricity delivered to Gazoo. The PA decided to cut electricity payments for Gazoo in April. Hamas said then the "catastrophic decision" would have "dangerous" consequences. Electricity supply is a major concern in the hot and cramped territory, which is currently marking the holy fasting Moslem month of Ramadan. Gazooks currently receive only three or four hours of electricity a day. The electricity is delivered from the territory's own power station and others in Israel and Egypt. Residents who can afford it use generators to power their homes or businesses in the impoverished Paleostinian enclave of some two million people. |
