Israel says it is halting its electricity supply to Gaza, which Palestinians rely on for their water supply, a week after blocking all humanitarian aid from entering the Strip.

The announcement by Israel comes just a week after Israel stopped supplies of goods to the territory to more than 2 million people, a move that triggered widespread condemnation.
