Gaza’s two main telecommunications companies Paltel and Jawwal warned on Wednesday of a “complete telecom blackout in the coming hours” in the Gaza Strip.
“Main data centers and switches in the Gaza Strip are gradually shutting down due to fuel depletion,” the companies said in a joint statement.
Paltel had earlier warned on Wednesday that its services across the Gaza Strip are expected to be suspended within hours only.
"All generators operating in the main exchanges in the Gaza Strip have stopped due to the exhaustion of fuel... which will lead to the suspension of all telecommunications services within the next few hours."
