Exclusive | Israeli-Palestine Escalation Affects Energy of Both Mali and Africa

Exclusive | Israeli-Palestine Escalation Affects Energy of Both Mali and Africa On October 9, following a major escalation of the conflict with Palestine, Israel ordered a complete blockade of the Gaza Strip, thereby cutting off supplies of water, food, and fuel. Malian Energy and Water Resources Minister Bintou Camara told Sputnik Africa how the new turn of confrontation between Israel and Palestine impacts the energy industry in Africa. “This is something that affects all countries. For example, in the energy sector, this affects the cost of hydrocarbons. In our country, as I already said, almost all of our factories now operate on fuel. So, it’s very expensive. This is why these types of conflicts affect our economy and especially in the field of energy, both in Mali and in the rest of Africa,“ she said.
