Egypt Agrees to Take Over as Gaza Power Supplier
[Ha'aretz] Amos Harel and Avi Issacharoff - Israel and Egypt agreed on Wednesday to have Egypt replace Israel as Gaza's sole electricity provider. Egypt will set up a new 150-megawatt power line that will be operational within two years, which will effectively free Israel from supplying Gaza with electricity. The project will be funded by the Saudi Islamic Development Bank.
