Netanyahu says $500m India-Israel arms deal back on the table

A massive arms deal with India is back on, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu tells reporters who are accompanying him on his weeklong trip to the country.

Israel’s Rafael was set to sell half a billion dollars worth of Spike missiles to India, but a few days before Netanyahu took off for Delhi Sunday morning the deal was cancelled.

Netanyahu says the deal succeeded in getting Delhi to reauthorize the deal, though the exact parameters of the transactions are currently unclear.
