An Egyptian pipeline, which transports gas to Israel and Jordan, was attacked on Monday.
The blast struck in the northern Sinai at the entrance of the Mediterranean coastal town of Al-Arish.
This was at least the 14th attack on the pipeline since the end of the Mubarak regime last year.
Israel imports 43 % of its natural gas needs from Egypt, while Jordan imports 80 %.
