Hamas's government in the Gaza Strip asked a striking Palestinian fuel association on Sunday to resume deliveries in the impoverished territory, a Hamas official said. Israel has sharply cut back on the amount of fuel pumped into the Gaza Strip, which Hamas Islamists seized after routing forces loyal to Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas in June.
The association said it went on strike to protest against the limited supplies, preventing 1 million litres in fuel tanks on the Gaza-side of a border crossing from being delivered.
