Under the slogan "Go down the cutter to raise your dignity," activists launched an electronic campaign calling on citizens to cut electricity to homes from 10-11 pm Saturday, in opposition to the gas agreement signed with the Israeli Occupation.

Hamad Al-Absi, a member of the national campaign said, "This is not the first time that the campaign resorted to a boycott.

Previously, he noted there was a boycott which lasted about four weeks and was met with great interaction, and this agreement became popularly rejected.

Absi added that this campaign is one of a series of activities to reject the gas agreement with the Israeli Occupation.

He pointed out that the campaign resorted to all state and parliament officials, and provided them with a 40-page document proving that the gas agreement is tainted by corruption, pointing out that "parties did not deal with us seriously and did not drop the gas agreement."

Absi indicated that there is no economic or political benefit to Jordan from the gas agreement, stressing the continuation of the national campaign to drop the gas agreement with the Israeli Occupation.

He believed that there is no political will in Jordan to drop the gas agreement, and that the terms of the agreement are unfair to the Kingdom.

He said that there is still an option for Jordan to cancel the agreement and disengage from it without paying the penalty clause, by citing mitigating coronavirus pandemic measures, which is contained in clause 16 of the agreement.

In addition, there is a clause in the agreement indicating that in the event of financial insolvency on the selling party, Jordan can disengage from the agreement.

In early September 2014, Jordan’s official news agency (Petra) reported that the Jordanian National Electric Power Company (NEPCO) had signed a letter of intent to import large amounts of natural gas extracted from the Mediterranean seabed.

Later, it was disclosed that the gas would come from the Leviathan gas field, the Israeli Occupation's largest offshore gas field.
