A senior Israeli official this evening (Sunday) attacked Lebanon over its claims regarding the shark rig and said that the shark reservoir is completely inside Israel's recognized economic water from the UN. "The positions that Lebanon itself has presented in the past," said the Israeli official.
According to the senior Israeli official, Israel conducts gas exploration in non-disputed areas, but Lebanon does not do the same and does not take advantage of the opportunity to improve the situation of its citizens.
"The lies and threats against Israel are an attempt by the Lebanese government to divert the attention of the Lebanese people from corruption and the fact that they are impersonal," the senior Israeli official said.
