Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu says staffers for US Vice President Joe Biden are arriving in Israel ahead of Biden’s possible visit to the country.

At a cabinet meeting Sunday, Netanyahu cites media reports that Biden is considering visiting Israel in the coming days. He says Biden’s staff is landing in Israel on Sunday, but dates for a visit have not been set.

Biden’s last visit to Israel sparked a diplomatic spat with Washington in 2010, when Israel announced settlement construction plans during Biden’s visit.
