Gaza: Israel Allows Qatar to Pay Palestinians' Back Salaries
------------------------------------------------------------

Meanwhile, Israel allowed the government of Qatar to provide millions of
dollars in aid to pay the salaries of thousands of Palestinian civil
servants who've worked for months without a full paycheck. Israel has
also allowed shipments of diesel fuel into Gaza-also paid for by
Qatar-which has reduced the number of hours Gaza residents have spent
without electricity. Even with the increased power supply, Gazans have
only about eight hours of electricity per day.
