Only if you believe it’s collective punishment. I’ve argued that cutting off electricity and similar actions are not intended as punishment at all, it’s intended to reduce the rocket-making capabilities of Hamas and PIJ as they actively use every resource at their disposal to make and fire rockets.
Ah yes grid electricity that is totally necessary for production of explosives and turning off doesn’t disproportionately affect all the people in hospitals that require it to live.
It absolutely is collective punishment no matter the intent. The general public suffer.
Way to act like a propogada mouthpiece for a genocidal state.
Israel supplied about half of Gaza’s electricity. They do not need more than the other half to run a hospital and a desalination plant. Hamas has been stealing all the fuel it can to create rockets and support other offensive capabilities. They aren’t struggling to produce enough electricity because they don’t have the ability to produce enough electricity, they’re struggling because Hamas is literally taking it from them.
From Wikipedia, their power comes from:
Power plant use fossil fuels, but Hamas has been stealing the fuel they have reserved, so yes, the power plant is operating below capacity. If they wanted to run the hospital or the desalination plant as badly as they wanted to fire rockets vaguely in the direction of Israel, they would.
Way to act like a total dumbass who hasn’t spent more than five minutes researching the situation and refuses to learn.
It wouldn’t be the current blockade by Israel that has caused the fuel shortage?
And Egypt?
Again, they had fuel stores, Hamas stole the fuel.
I mean the Wikipedia article you linked only mentions relying on Israel for desiel fuel.
On the other hand even if Egypt provided fuel to Palestine, Israel has been bombing the crossing so not even humanitarian aid is getting through.
a crossing has been bombed. There’s no evidence whatsoever that Israel bombed it, nor any real reason to think Israel bombed it TBH. meanwhile, Hamas and other Arab nations frequently insist that nobody leave Gaza. Gee, I wonder why they’re so quick to blame Israel…
