STORYLINE:
Israeli Prime Minister Yair Lapid on Sunday welcomed a U.S.-brokered proposal for demarcating a maritime border with Lebanon, saying it could increase profits for both countries from natural gas production.
Lapid told his weekly cabinet meeting that Israel and Lebanon received the U.S. Energy Envoy Amos Hochstein's proposal for an agreement on a maritime line between the two countries over the weekend.
The dispute concerns an area of some 860 square km of the Mediterranean Sea.
He said the proposal is undergoing a legal review, adding the approval of the deal would be decided in a cabinet vote and a first cab
