Administrative prisoners in Israeli prisons are preparing for an open-ended hunger strike Today, Friday, the Administrative Prisoners Committee in Israeli prisons announced that it had decided to go on an open collective hunger strike "in the coming days," in an attempt to achieve positive results in their file. The Committee of Administrative Prisoners said in a statement, "The announcement of the strike came after certainty that the occupation cannot provide positive results in terms of administrative detention, except with real pressure that forces it and pushes it to deal with our demands," stressing that "the mass hunger strike weapon, with external support, Embracing my factions is an effective and accomplished weapon." The committee specified its demands from the strike, to set the ceiling for administrative detention, and to "stop this vile massacre that crushed our lives, destroyed our dreams, and stole the flowers of our youth." And she called on every capable administrative prisoner to take the initiative to register his name as a participant with the official of his department, "And write your wills from now, hoping that the names will reach us within 48 hours." She pointed out that "the step of the strike also comes as a fulfillment of all previous efforts that have struggled against administrative detention, whether through strikes or boycotting the courts, and as an accumulation of all the results and the movement that has been going on for two years." Last Tuesday, the leading prisoner of the "Islamic Jihad" movement, Khader Adnan, died after he went on a hunger strike that lasted 86 continuous days, refusing to arrest him. Hebrew media: secret talks to extract gas from Gaza The Israeli Channel 13 revealed that the Israeli government was conducting "secret talks" to discuss the possibility of extracting gas from the "Gaza Marine" field, in an "attempt to economically revive the Palestinian Authority." In a press report published by the channel on Thursday evening, it said that the government of Benjamin Netanyahu is in "secret talks" with the Palestinian Authority, to extract gas from the field off the coast of the Gaza Strip, known as "Gaza Marine", with the approval of Netanyahu and Defense Minister Yoav Gallant. The report indicated that the Israeli government held internal discussions regarding the gas field, which is 36 km from the Gaza coast in the Mediterranean waters, after it was formed at the end of last year, and stated that the talks were renewed as part of the political and security process that began recently between Israel and the Palestinian Authority, with American mediation. The report stated that the issue of developing the "Gaza Marine" field and preparing it for gas extraction was at the heart of the talks that took place in the Aqaba and Sharm el-Sheikh meetings, which brought together security and political officials from the Palestinian and Israeli sides, under the auspices of the United States, and with the participation of Jordan and Egypt. According to the report, the talks in this regard are being led by the head of the Israeli National Security Council, Tzachi Hanegbi, who headed the Israeli delegation to Aqaba and Sharm el-Sheikh, and the coordinator of government operations in the occupied territories, Ghassan Alyan. The report said that Israel believes that this step will benefit the Palestinians economically, which may contribute to reducing security tensions in the long term. The report stresses that the talk does not revolve around an agreement similar to the agreement with Lebanon regarding the demarcation of the maritime borders, which contributed to allowing Israel and Lebanon to extract gas from the fields in the Mediterranean Sea, in the north of the country, and the report pointed to "the long-term security and political repercussions of such a step." The channel said that the decision to start extracting gas from "Gaza Marine" is "subject to Israeli approval," pointing to the complications raised by the Israeli side by claiming that only countries have the right to manage the gas fields legally, and therefore "the Palestinian Authority cannot do this alone, so the solution is Egypt to sponsor this project. The report revealed Israeli-Egyptian talks in this regard, and said that meetings were held recently with the participation of senior Israeli and Egyptian officials to discuss this issue. Noting that the Palestine Investment Fund signed an agreement with the Contractors Union with the Egyptian “EGAS” in February 2021, to cooperate in the efforts to develop the Gaza gas field. The report pointed to "security challenges" to complete the project, and according to Israeli estimates, "Hamas will not stand idly by, so the central question is how to develop" the gas field in Gaza. The channel also quoted a high-ranking Israeli official as saying that "any such step may raise public criticism in Israel regarding the issue of Israeli prisoners and missing persons held by Hamas," while the official stressed that such an agreement would be concluded with the Palestinian Authority itself and not with authorities in Gaza. The channel indicated that with the completion of the discussions in the National Security Council of the Israeli Prime Minister's Office, which are taking place in an attempt to develop possible plans to push for the extraction of gas from the "Gaza Marine", these plans will be presented to the Israeli government. Meanwhile, Israel notified the Palestinian Authority and the American and Egyptian sides, through several channels, of the resumption of internal Israeli talks in this regard, according to the report. A senior Israeli official stated that the Egyptian and American sides expressed their support for these efforts, while the Palestinian side questioned the Israeli efforts, after "discussing this issue on several previous occasions, which ended without an Israeli decision." The Palestinians own the first field discovered in the eastern Mediterranean region at the end of the nineties of the last century, known as "Gaza Marine", and gas has not been extracted from it until today, due to the Israeli rejection of Palestinian requests to exploit it. The field is located 36 km west of Gaza in the Mediterranean waters, and was developed in 2000 by the British Gas Company, which left it for the benefit of Royal Dutch Shell, which also left in 2018. The reserves in the field are estimated at 1.1 trillion cubic feet of natural gas, or 32 billion cubic meters, equivalent to a production capacity of 1.5 billion cubic meters annually for a period of 20 years. Last October, an informed Palestinian source denied the existence of any Egyptian-Palestinian-Israeli agreement to extract gas from the "Gaza Marine" field. The source said, "The Israeli media's publication of an Egyptian-Palestinian-Israeli agreement to develop the gas field on the shores of the Gaza Strip is inaccurate." He added, "The consultations between us and Egypt do not mention the Israeli side at all. We will not pay Israel to extract what belongs to us. This is unacceptable. Israel is only required not to obstruct work." At that time, the Palestinian government announced the formation of a ministerial committee to follow up with the Palestinian Investment Fund, the “sovereign fund,” to complete an agreement with Egypt to finance and operate the Palestinian gas field off the Gaza Strip. At the end of last year, the Israeli Public Broadcasting Corporation, Kan11, reported that "Egypt, Israel and the Palestinian Authority have agreed to develop a natural gas field on the shores of the Gaza Strip." She pointed out that the profits of the gas field will return to the Palestinian Authority and Israel.
