Prime Minister Naftali Bennett is reportedly planning a trip to Egypt to visit Egyptian President Abdel-Fattah el-Sissi.
According to the Walla news site, the expected visit comes in the wake of the further warming of ties between the nations, after on Wednesday Israel announced the inauguration of a new route between Ben Gurion Airport and the Egyptian coastal resort of Sharm el-Sheikh.
Bennett met with Sissi in Sharm el-Sheikh in September, the first meeting in a decade between the leaders of Israel and Egypt.
