Prime Minister Naftali Bennett spoke today with Jordan’s King Abdullah II, the latest in a recent series of high-level contacts between Israeli leaders and the Jordanian monarch amid concerns of tensions over Ramadan.

According to Bennett’s office, the premier wished the king a happy Ramadan, which began yesterday, and thanked him for his condemnation of several recent terror attacks in Israel.

“They also discussed the importance of cooperation between the countries and the continuation of the relationship and continuous discourse,” a statement from the Prime Minister’s Office says.
