An explosion went off at a gas terminal in Egypt's northern Sinai Peninsula on Saturday, setting off a massive fire along a gas pipeline that transports gas to Israel and Jordan.
Head of Egypt's natural gas company said the fire was caused by a gas leak.
Earlier, the governor of the region said he suspected "sabotage," but provided no details.
Israeli officials said it was not clear whether the explosion affected the pipeline leading to Israel.
