Report: Lebanon Drops Claims on Karish Gas Field
(Globes) Danny Zaken - In the dispute between Israel and Lebanon over the border of their economic waters, Lebanon's President Michel Aoun has presented U.S. mediator Amos Hochstein with a compromise that would remove any claims on the Karish field. Globes has been informed by U.S. sources that Lebanon would be ready to reach an agreement based on Line 23 originally presented to the UN and retreat from Line 29, which it has been demanding in negotiations since December 2020. Hochstein had made his return to Beirut to continue mediation contingent on the Lebanese accepting the original Line 23.
