Midnight rush for power in electricity-starved Gaza

Midnight rush for power in electricity-starved Gaza

 Families in Gaza rush to complete errands when electricity comes on for
an average of two hours a day, typically in the middle of the night when
least expected. The life-altering,
Israeli-imposed electricity cuts limit residents access to basic
necessities like light, clean water, and fresh foods.
