German Chancellor Olaf Scholz will make a short visit to Israel on Tuesday, Hebrew media reports.
Scholz will hold talks with Israeli leaders and visit the Yad Vashem Holocaust Museum, accompanied by Prime Minister Naftali Bennett.
The visit comes amid international efforts to find an end to the Russian invasion of Ukraine. Israel has been suggested as a mediator in the conflict due to its close ties with both nations.
