Israel’s PM Lapid vows to start production over Karish offshore gas field, contested Mediterranean area, threatening to raise tensions with Lebanon’s Hezbollah
Israel set up a gas rig at Karish in June, saying the field is part of its UN-recognised exclusive economic zone. Lebanon says Karish is in disputed waters.
Lapid said it is “both possible and necessary” to reach an agreement with Lebanon, which he said would benefit both countries and “strengthen regional stability.” Hezbollah’s leader issued a warning to Israel over the maritime dispute, saying that “any arm” that reaches to steal Lebanon’s wealth “will be cut off.”
