“The unrealized potential of Palestinian oil and gas reserves” - Article/report is from 2019. I wonder how relevant this is to what’s happening right now?

unctad.org The unrealized potential of Palestinian oil and gas reserves

Geologists and resources economists have confirmed that the occupied Palestinian territory (oPt) lies above sizeable reservoirs of oil and natural gas wealth, in Area C of the West Bank and the Mediterranean coast off the Gaza Strip, according to a recent UNCTAD study.

This is not something I was previously aware of, but a friend on Discord shared it with me and it seems pretty damning. Anyone know anything else about this?

EDIT: Here’s the full UN report https://unctad.org/system/files/official-document/gdsapp2019d1_en.pdf
