An Egyptian pipeline supplying gas to the Israeli regime and Jordan has once again been hit by a major explosion, which is the fourteenth attack on the energy link since January 2011.
The attack on the gas pipeline, which crosses the Sinai Peninsula, occurred on Monday in the northern Sinai at the entrance of the Mediterranean coastal town of Al-Arish, Reuters reported.
No group or individual has claimed responsibility for the attack, yet.
The gas pipeline’s operations had been suspended following the last bomb attack on February 5. It was brought back into service just last week.
The issue of supplying gas to the Tel Aviv regime has always been a contentious topic for Egyptians, who view Israel as their number-one enemy and oppose engaging in any form of business with it.
