<p>We are closely monitoring the current electricity situation in Gaza. This was initially
triggered by a lack of fuel for the Gaza Power Plant, and exacerbated by a subsequent
reduction in the supply of electricity from Israel, following a request from the Palestinian

situation is deteriorating, the UN Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs
has not declared the current situation an ‘emergency'.</p>
