Gaza, ALRAY - Israeli occupation authorities blocked Tuesday fuel to enter Gaza through Karm Abu Salem.

The fuel is used to run the only power plant in The Gaza Strip.

The Israeli side allowed the entry of 350 trucks loaded with goods for commercial, agricultural and transportation sectors, head of the Coordination Committee for the entry of goods in the Gaza Strip Raed Fattouh said.

Gaza Energy Authority stated that the Qatari-funded fuel will run out today in case the fuel does not enter, adding that the electricity will be cut for 12 hours a day.

Karam Abu Salem is the only commercial crossing through which goods and fuel enter the Gaza Strip. The occupation authorities close it on Friday and Saturday of each week.
