💨 Abstract

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu approved a $35 billion natural gas export deal to Egypt, the largest in Israeli history. The 15-year agreement, facilitated by Chevron, aims to strengthen Israel's regional energy position and stabilize relations with Egypt, a key mediator in the Gaza conflict. Meanwhile, Germany expanded its defense agreement with Israel for the Arrow 3 missile system, increasing the deal's value to $6.5 billion, the largest Israeli defense export deal ever.
