Officials from the Turkish Energy and Natural Resources Ministry have been meeting with Hamas officials in Gaza to discuss the current power crisis in the region, according to the Palestinian Authority-based Alresalah news outlet.

The Turkish delegation traveled to Gaza via the Erez Crossing two weeks after Israel and Ankara sealed an agreement to restore diplomatic ties between the two countries.

The delegation was also scheduled to meet with Israeli officials and members of the Ramallah-based Palestinian Authority government.

The discussions aimed at finding a way to relieve the power outages that have plagued the energy-starved enclave for more than a year.

Upon its return the delegation is expected to report its findings to Turkish Energy and Natural Resources Minister Berat Albayrak.
