Egypt-Israel gas line blown up by unidentified assailants - report

Israel started exporting natural gas to southern neighbor Egypt in January, the energy ministers of both countries said. Exports follow a $15 billion decade-long deal signed by Delek Drilling and Houston-based Noble Energy in February 2018 to supply 64 billion cubic meters (bcm) of natural gas to Egypt from the Leviathan and Tamar gas fields, located off Israel.
Gas will be supplied to Egypt's Dolphinus Holdings out via the 90 km. subsea EMG Pipeline, connecting the southern Israel city of Ashkelon to the Egyptian network near El-Arish.
Egypt paid a $500 million fine to Israel for backing out of an agreement to provide natural gas, following jihadist attacks on the pipeline in the Sinai peninsula.
At the time that the gas supply was cut off, Egypt was supplying Israel with more than 40% of its natural gas needs to produce electricity.
Terrorists blew up the gas line three times during the first six months of 2011. Egypt canceled gas exports to Israel in 2012.
This is a developing story.
