"The region where the find was made lies mostly off the Lebanese shores and in international waters between the sea border of Palestine and the sea border of Cyprus.

The analyst added, "the drill sites, 'Rut', 'Tamar', 'Leviathan' and 'Alon' are included in areas that penetrate sites off of the Lebanese shores or in areas that are situated very far away from the shores of Israel.
