Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu speaks to Russian President Vladimir Putin by phone, in a conversation described as “warm” by the Israeli leader’s office.
Putin wished Netanyahu and Israelis a happy Passover and good luck in combating the pandemic, the statement says.
The two leaders also discussed cooperation in the purchase of medical supplies amid a global shortage and “agreed to enable movement between Russia and Israel so that citizens of both countries may return to their [home] countries,” the statement says.
