The chief of the Greek military, General Konstantinos Floros, has concluded his first official visit to Israel, the Israeli army says.
Floros held meetings with his Israeli counterpart Lt. Gen. Aviv Kohavi, along with Maj. Gen. Tal Kelman, the military official in charge of Iran affairs, a senior intelligence officer, and other officials.
“The meetings discussed a number of topics, including shared challenges in the Mediterranean region,” the Israel Defense Forces says.
“The bilateral cooperation between the two militaries, with an emphasis on intelligence-related cooperation and joint training opportunities,” was also discussed, a statement adds.
Floros was given a tour of various IDF bases, including the Intelligence Directorate’s Unit 9900, Navy’s Shayetet 13, Air Force’s Palmachim airbase, and an Iron Dome air defense battery.
