GAZA CITY, Gaza Strip — Gaza City residents faced closed bakeries, stalled elevators and no water Sunday after the ruling Hamas shut down the territory’s only power plant, saying it had run out of fuel supplied by Israel.

Israel charged that Hamas was creating an artificial crisis, raising tensions ahead of a visit by the Egyptian mediator trying to broker a truce between the two enemies.

On Sunday, Gaza militants fired three rockets at Israel, the military said. One exploded next to a school bus transporting children, another hit a factory and the third landed at a college. No one was hurt.
