Israeli regime on Sunday prevented the entry of fuel trucks allocated for Gaza's sole power plant via the Kerem Shalom crossing, the territory's main commercial trade route, Palestinian officials said.

Iran PressMiddle East: "The [Israeli] occupation authorities barred the entry of 25 trucks loaded with fuel for the Gaza power plant," Rami Abu Elreish of Gaza's Ministry of Economy said.

He said Israeli authorities did not clarify the reason behind the move.

There was no comment from the Israeli authorities on the report.

Last month, Israel allowed the entry of fuel for Gaza's power plant after a suspension of 49 days following the 12-day military offensive on the Palestinian territory in May, in which 260 Palestinians were killed and thousands injured.
