Israel is satisfied with the final draft of a U.S.-mediated maritime border deal with Lebanon, Israel's National Security Council head Eyal Hulata said on Tuesday.

"All our demands were met, the changes that we asked for were corrected. We protected Israel's security interests and are on our way to an historic agreement," Hulata said in a statement.
