GAZA, (PIC)-- The power and natural resources authority in Gaza Strip said on Wednesday that it had transferred the sum of two million dollars to Egypt as a payment in advance in return for fuel supplies but nothing arrived in the Strip yet.

It said in a press release that the sole electricity generation station in the Strip was still out of work because of the lack of fuel.

The authority hoped that Egypt would soon start sending fuel supplies and in enough amounts to re-operate the station.

The authority asked the media outlets to be accurate in carrying information and to get it from its original source from the authority and not to publish unauthenticated reports especially about electricity and energy in the Strip.
