The West Bank-based Palestinian Authority has told Israel that it will stop paying for electricity supplied to the Gaza Strip, Israeli officials say.
There was no confirmation from the PA. But President Mahmoud Abbas has threatened "unprecedented steps" to end the political division with the rival Hamas movement, which dominates Gaza.

It would be awful if the Gazans can’t get power thru the high voltage lines to the strip, but there is a path forward here, that I’d hope would be workable with Israel, in lieu of power lines.
Have ALL the palees get in a single line from Israel threading all the way thru Gaza, all holding hands. Then, on the free hand of the end palie on the Israel side, 2,000,000 volts are supplied. Since palies are great conductors, this brings power to all the far reaches into Gaza.
So, if it gets a bit chilly there, the paliees have no fear - they will have plenty of power and be nicely warmed at the same time.
There was a period where Israel refused to provide fuel without being paid for it and it turned into a big UN issue as I recall. So, yeah, there’s history of just the sort of thing you outline.
Maybe, if the Gazans just quit being azzholes ...
Then stop sending them electricity.
Nobody gets anything for free.
Same thing is happening in Detroit only with water.
Thousands there fail to pay for the water they use and some judge says it is wrong to shut them off.

The Palestinians are culturally appropriating electricity anyway, so cut it off. It’s polluting their pristine state of nature.
Regardless of ideology, I hope for the sake of those residing in that precarious pile of loosely organized debris that there are no earthquakes there.

haha. Too true. Likely they are looking for some free press for when Israel cuts the power. "Those evil jeeeeeews cut off our electricity!"
