(Ahlul Bayt News Agency) - Israeli occupation authorities (IOA) started to pump industrial diesel donated by Qatar into the Gaza Strip on Sunday morning through Karm Abu Salem crossing.
An official in the Palestinian government in Gaza told a PIC correspondent that 450,000 liters of diesel donated by Qatar was being shipped to Gaza on Sunday morning in order to re-operate the Strip's sole power plant.
Qatar has donated 10 million dollars to pay taxes imposed on fuel allocated to Gaza power plant by the Palestinian Authority in Ramallah.
Palestinian Prime Minister Ismail Haneyya announced on Tuesday that Qatar will send a ship carrying fuel needed to run the plant for about 4 months.
