BIG: Netanyahu told i24 he feels on a “historic and spiritual mission” and strongly identifies with the vision of “Greater Israel,” encompassing land beyond Israel’s current borders, including areas slated for a Palestinian state and parts of Jordan and Egypt.
He framed his role as part of a “mission of generations” for the Jewish people.
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu announced on Sunday that Israel would work to develop a natural gas field off the coast of the Gaza Strip, a proposal that has been repeatedly floated for decades.
A statement from the Prime Minister’s Office declared that as part of a “framework of existing efforts” between Israel, Egypt and the Palestinian Authority, the government is moving forward with developing the “Gaza Marine gas field off the coast of Gaza.”
The move is seen as an olive branch to the Palestinians and, if carried out, is expected to bring in billions of shekels to the PA. The PMO said it was pursuing the plan with an emphasis “on Palestinian economic development and maintaining security stability in the region.”
The statement said that the project is “subject to coordination between the security services and direct dialogue with Egypt, in coordination with the PA.”
