In view of what is happening in the global gas market in general and the regional in particular, more and more factors are trying to jump on the bandwagon. 

Today, the Palestinian Authority has made it clear that it demands its right to exploit natural resources, with an emphasis on the gas field off the coast of the Gaza Strip. The demand is that Israel allow this.

In its statement, the authority stressed that "the development of the gas field in Gaza, known as Gaza Marin, requires Israel to immediately and unequivocally declare the removal of any obstacle to the development of this field and all Palestinian natural resources."

The Authority emphasized that Israel has been thwarting any attempt to develop the field for about two decades.
