Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu has asked the IEC not to risk the lives of its employees in trying to restore power.
Seventy thousand Gazans from Khan Younis and Deir el-Balah were in the dark Sunday night after a Hamas rocket hit the power line that supplies electricity to those places. It's not clear when Israel Electric Company workers will be able to repair the system, but they are apparently in no rush to do so. Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu has asked the IEC not to risk the lives of its employees in trying to restore power to the affected sector in Gaza, an operation that could take hours.

They keep trying to get the Palestinians to launch statehood in their existing territories and act like a real country but it doesn’t look like that will happen.

Have Muslims ever “fixed” anything? It seems that all they do is destroy things. Seriously, what have they done to advance society? After destroying everything in their path, praying five times a day and getting offended about every little thing, what do they do with their time? Do they work, pay taxes, take care of their household, etc......

Hamas will most certainly tell the locals that an Israeli air strike destroyed the power station. if they didn't, they should have....that's how you fight a war...

the moment that a Hamas rocket is launched toward Israel, the Gaza power supply should be shut off.....it wouldn’t take too long before the citizens there would seek to control their leaders actions

The funny thing about this is, Israel supplies power, water and all public services to Gaza. Gazans want to be a country that relies on another country to do everything for them

Let the goat-humpers fix it - if they can. (”Duhhhh..what’s electricity?”)

"The Palestinians owe the Israel Electric Company $520 million in unpaid bills for electricity. The company is suing to get paid from money given to the Palestinians." I'm sure Obongo will come with the cash from the US Treasury
You know, "Palestinians" are like Obongo's own kin.
