Israel cuts off Gaza fuel after attack

By MARK LAVIE, Associated Press Writer

JERUSALEM - Israel cut off the only source of fuel to Gaza’s 1.4 million people Thursday after a deadly Palestinian raid on the Israeli depot, deepening the seaside territory’s hardship.

Gaza’s Hamas rulers warned more attacks will follow, as resentment grows over a months-old Israeli blockade.

The fuel cutoff that followed the brazen daylight attack on the only fuel transfer point into Gaza brought charges that Islamic extremists were trying to provoke another round of violence with Israel, while putting Israel in the untenable position of appearing to cause a humanitarian crisis.
