President Isaac Herzog will fly to Cyprus tomorrow for several hours to meet with Cypriot President Nikos Christodoulides, says the President’s Residence.
During the brief visit, says his office, Herzog will discuss “intensified international efforts to secure the return of hostages to their families,” and “the latest regional and international developments.”
