Will Israel go through with plan to develop Gaza gas field?
Amid reports about talks between Israel and the Palestinian Authority to import gas to the territories, sources say the PA intends to get gas to operate Gaza’s power plant and solve its acute power crisis.
RAMALLAH, West Bank — Israeli Minister of Energy Yuval Steinitz said Jan. 16 that talks are ongoing between the Israeli government and the Palestinian Authority (PA) to supply the PA with natural gas.
The Turkish Anadolu Agency quoted Steinitz as saying during his participation in the Eastern Mediterranean Gas Forum in Egypt that talks with the Palestinians are also covering the development of the Gaza Marine gas field facing the Gaza shores on the Mediterranean.
