Gaza's main power plant began shutting down yesterday, due to a fuel shortage caused by Israel's closure of the Hamas-controlled territory's borders – a move reportedly taken in response to Palestinian rocket attacks.
Israel has responded to the attacks with air strikes and ground incursions which have killed 39 Palestinians.
