The Times of Israel reports that a fuel shortage is causing long lines at gas stations across Judea and Samaria, driven by a cash liquidity crunch and the PA's reliance on the Israeli shekel. The report notes that the scarcity has led to illicit 'black gold' sales.
According to a report by The Times of Israel, a fuel shortage in Judea and Samaria has left Palestinian drivers waiting in long lines at gas stations, with the local economy described as 'running on empty.' The report attributes the scarcity to a cash liquidity crunch and fiscal strains, partly stemming from the Palestinian Authority's reliance on the Israeli shekel. The shortage has also fueled illicit 'black gold' sales. No immediate resolution has been reported.
