Palestine asks to Import Fuel from Iraq

The Palestinian Authority has reportedly filed a formal request to Israel to allow the import of fuel from Iraq.

 

Palestinian Prime Minister, Mohammed Shtayyeh, told Israel’s Haaretz newspaper that although the request was made four months ago, Israel has yet to respond.

 

He said: “Fuel is our biggest expense … The cheaper fuel from Iraq will reduce the pressure on our budget considerably.”
