BETHLEHEM (Ma'an) -- Palestinian Prime Minister Rami Hamdallah is scheduled to discuss with Qatari officials possible solutions to end the ongoing power crisis in the Gaza Strip.
Chief of the Palestinian Power Authority Omar Kittanah told Ma'an Tuesday that the Palestinian Authority was exerting serious efforts to end the coastal enclave's power crisis which resulted from a lack of fuel to run Gaza's sole power plant.
Hamdallah arrived in Qatar Sunday for talks with Qatari officials including his counterpart Abdullah Ibn Nasser.
Palestinian news outlets reported that Hamdallah was invited by the Emir of Qatar Sheikh Tamim Ibn Hamad Al Thani to discuss possible solutions to Gaza's power crisis.
Palestinian daily al-Ayyam newspaper on Tuesday discussed two solutions Qatar is offering.
According to the newspaper, Qatar will suggest either to pay the PA money to buy fuel from Israel and deliver it to Gaza, or to ship fuel from Qatar via Israel's Ashdod port, which the PA will deliver to the coastal enclave. more
