Cairo: Egypt has terminated a long-term gas deal with Israel because of
violations of contractual obligations, Egypt's daily al-Ahram
reported.
The Egyptian Natural Gas Holding Company's decision Sunday comes
after a string of cross-border pipeline attacks in the 14 months
since Egyptian president Hosni Mubarak's ouster last February. The
move overshadows the peace agreement between the two countries.
