cuts off supply to , affecting a plant producing drinking water

TEL AVIV, Israel (AP) — "Israel cut off the electricity supply to Gaza, officials said Sunday, affecting a desalination plant producing drinking water for part of the arid territory. Hamas called it part of Israel’s '.'

"Israel last week suspended supplies of goods to the territory of more than 2 million , an echo of the siege it imposed in the earliest days of the war.

"Israel is pressing the militant group to accept an extension of the first phase of their ceasefire. That phase ended last weekend. Israel wants to release half of the remaining hostages in return for a promise to negotiate a lasting truce.

"Hamas instead wants to start negotiations on the ceasefire’s more difficult second phase, which would see the release of remaining hostages from Gaza, the withdrawal of Israeli forces and a lasting peace. Hamas is believed to have 24 living hostages and the bodies of 35 others.

"The militant group — which has warned that discontinuing supplies would affect the hostages — said Sunday that it wrapped up the latest round of ceasefire talks with mediators without changes to its position."

@DoomsdaysCW But still we are "recommended" to call those who constantly do things like this the good ones.
