In late November 2022 Energean announced a new commercial natural gas discovery of 13 billion cubic meters off the shore of Israel as a result of its exploratory drilling well dubbed Zeus.
Natural gas in Israel is a primary energy source in Israel, mainly utilized for electricity production and to lesser degree in industry. Israel began producing natural gas from its own offshore gas fields in 2004.

In early 2017, Israel began exporting natural gas to the Kingdom of Jordan.

In 2023 Cyprus and Israel were working on a deal to create a natural gas pipeline between the two countries, whereas Israeli natural gas would be liquified and exported to Europe.
Which would be 320-kilometer (200-mile) in length and estimated to cost 450 million euros. The pipeline would take about two and a half years to build.
I did wonder why the Israelis were so keen to take Gaza back.
