Lebanon has warned Israel against any aggressive action in disputed waters where both states hope to develop offshore energy after a ship arrived off the coast to produce gas for Israel.
President Michel Aoun says any activity in the disputed area would amount to an act of aggression and a provocation, after the arrival of the natural gas storage and production ship operated by London-based Energean.
Israel says the field in question is within its exclusive economic zone, not in disputed waters.
The Lebanese presidency says Aoun discussed with caretaker Prime Minister Najib Mikati the vessel’s entry into the disputed maritime area with Israel and asked the Army Command to provide him with accurate and official data to build upon the matter.
