JERUSALEM (Reuters) - Gaza's power plant received a full supply of fuel on Sunday, officials with the European-funded fuel supply programme said.

"The plant received the full amount for today. It was delivered," said a senior European Union official involved in overseeing the programme.

Earlier on Sunday, a senior Palestinian official said supplies to the plant had been cut by 12 percent.

The EU pays for all of the fuel supplied to the Gaza power plant and oversees each delivery.
