Gaza's only power plant resumed work at a limited capacity yesterday after being shut down for two days over a lack of fuel.

Who to blame? That depends on which news service's unidentified Palestinian "sources" you choose to believe.

AFP:

Palestinian officials blamed the shortage in industrial diesel needed to power the plant on an Israeli blockade of Gaza tightened in June 2007 after the Islamist Hamas movement seized control of the territory.

Associated Press:

Officials say Gaza's only power plant has stopped operating because of a lack of fuel caused by the ongoing dispute between Palestinian political rivals.

Palestinian sources are proving that you don't need to have electricity to cross your wires. Don't get me started on the reliability of Gaza's medical sources. . .
