GAZA, (PIC)– The authority of energy and natural resources in Gaza warned against the aggravation of the power crisis due to the absence of sufficient fuel supplies needed to operate the power plant generators.
The energy authority added that it had to shut down three generators and kept only one running since the forth of April using the available fuel which will soon run out.
It noted that the operation of one generator would decrease the power distribution hours to less than six hours a day.
The authority accused the Egyptian authorities, Israel and the Palestinian authority government in Ramallah of hindering the delivery of the Qatar fuel aid that arrived at Suez port earlier this month.

Articles 55 and 56 of the Fourth Geneva Convention clearly establish that Israel, as the occupying power, not only has a duty to ensure medical supplies reach hospitals in the OPT, but to ensure and maintain the services of the hospitals too. As High Contracting Parties to the Geneva Conventions, other states not only have a moral duty but also a legal obligation to ensure Israel abides by its commitments to the protected population of the OPT.
UN Convention of the Rights of the Child, As a States Party to the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child, Israel is obliged under Article 24 of the treaty to recognise the right of every child under its effective jurisdiction “to the enjoyment of the highest attainable standard of health and to facilities for the treatment of illness and rehabilitation of health. States Parties shall strive to ensure that no child is deprived of his or her right of access to such health care services”.

While in the horrible holocaust, 1 in 6, so 1 million people died of the Nazi but exactly similar deliberate deprivation, Israel is doing exactly the same to Palestinians. Research (see link below) showed the annual deathrate by violent passive aggression is about 5000 deaths a year. Called Avoidable mortality or Excess Death.
For the sake of children and ill people in Palestine, share this post as wide as you can and keep sharing it. Health is no choice for many, right to medical care is a Human Right. Infringement of such is a passive form of aggression which policies Israel deliberately deploys with the intention to ethnic cleanse.
