Peace be upon you! Do you sympathize with poor people whome are controlled by their enemy???? I read this page of news on a web page>> Gaza suffers under Israeli blockade The one-and-a-half million Palestinians in Gaza are struggling to cope amid power cuts as Israel continues its fuel blockade of the territory.The shutdown of Gaza's only power plant has prompted fears of a humanitarian crisis in the Gaza Strip.Moaiya Hassanain, a health ministry official, said: "We have the choice to either cut electricity on babies in the maternity ward or heart surgery patients or stop operating rooms." Gaza City awoke on Monday to find bread shops and petrol stations closed.Blockade 'a catastrophe' Bakers said they stopped production as they had neither power nor flour. Fresh loaves of pita bread are a main part of residents' diets.Gazans said on Monday that they were eating less meat and dairy products since they had no power for refrigerators. The price of meat has doubled in 10 days.Gaza City was plunged into darkness after the plant was shut down on Sunday, three days after the Israeli fuel blockade began."At least 800,000 people are now in darkness," Derar Abu Sissi, general director of the plant, said on Monday.
"The catastrophe will affect hospitals, medical clinics, water wells, houses, factories - all aspects of life."'Patients at risk'head of the crisis management unit at the health ministry in Gaza, said that electricity from generators would only be available for a few more hours at the Al-Nasser children's hospital.
"These patients and these children are facing their destiny and they will die soon," he told Al Jazeera.
