EU resumes vital fuel aid for Gaza electric plant
The European Union said it will restart fuel shipments to Gaza’s power plant after suspending payments over alleged Hamas skim. The move brings relief from five days of outages as Gaza’s 1.4 million residents endure heat. Hamas denies skimming funds, blaming Abbas’s Pal estinian government. Probes open into a deadly Ground Zero blaze and a standpipe failure that hampered firefighting. Authorities also target energy drink marketing toward youths, while Atlus recalls 150 Arm Split arcade machines after arm injuries.
