Egypt-Israel Gas Line Attacked in Sinai
(Jerusalem Post-Ha'aretz) Tzvi Joffre - A gas line between Israel and Egypt in northern Sinai was attacked Sunday night, Al Jazeera reported. The partners that run the Leviathan gas platform said Sunday there had "not been any damage to the EMG pipeline connecting Israel and Egypt. The flow of gas from Leviathan to Egypt is continuing as normal." Previous explosions have closed the Egyptian pipeline for weeks. At least six masked militants planted explosives under the pipeline in the town of Bir al-Abd, Egyptian security officials said Sunday. The explosion sent thick flames shooting into the sky, and authorities stopped the flow of gas to extinguish the fire.
