A delegation led by Director General of the Defense Ministry Eyal Zamir will travel to Washington, DC, this week to discuss “the strengthening of defense-strategic cooperation [with the United States], with an emphasis on the procurement processes, to preserve Israel’s qualitative edge in the region,” the ministry says.
The ministry says Defense Minister Yoav Gallant ordered the visit.
Zamir will meet with officials at the US Department of Defense and Department of State, according to the ministry.
He will be joined by the head of the ministry’s Political-Military Bureau, Dror Shalom, the head of the ministry’s Directorate of Defense R&D, Danny Gold, Israel’s defense attaché to the US, Maj. Gen. Hidai Zilberman, and the ministry’s representative in Washington, Omer Haim, among other officials.
Help us report truthfully on social media
As a multimedia journalist, my job is to take the quality, fact-based journalism produced by The Times of Israel newsroom and make it accessible across every platform — from Instagram posts to podcasts to short-form videos.
This is how many, especially young people, consume news these days. But misinformation is rampant on social media. Our team at ToI produces accurate, responsible short-form reporting on Israel and the Jewish world.
If you believe in the importance of factual social media journalism, please consider joining our reader support group, The Times of Israel Community. Your financial support is essential to sustain responsible multimedia reporting.
