Israel Electric Corp says it will stop the sporadic 3-hour power cuts receiving US$214 mil. FMTNews WestBank Israel

JERUSALEM: Israel’s state-owned electric company said on Wednesday it was ending power cuts to the occupied West Bank after the Palestinians’ main power distributor paid off a chunk of debt.

Palestinians in the West Bank rely on IEC for over 95% of their electricity supply. The cuts led to power outages in the cities of Ramallah and Bethlehem, affecting an estimated 130,000 people, according to JDECO. JDECO buys electricity from IEC and then sells it to customers in the West Bank, territory Israel captured in the 1967 Middle East war and where the PA has limited self-rule under interim peace accords.
