A pipeline that runs through Egypt's North Sinai and supplies gas to the Occupied Palestine was targeted in an explosion, Egyptian state television and other sources reported on Saturday.

A security source said the Egyptian army closed the main source of gas supplying the pipeline.
"The armed forces and the authorities managed to close the main source of flow and are trying to control the fires," the source said.

Also, sources told Reuters news agency that two Units in the Electricity Station in North Sinai has stopped working.

"Israel" imports 40 percent of its natural gas from Egypt, in a deal built on their 1979 peace accord.
