Saudi Arabia denies report of diplomatic visit to Israel
Add ToI as a Preferred Source on GoogleSaudi Arabia denies that any of its officials visited Israel, after Israeli media reported that a senior prince had made a secret diplomatic trip there.
“Reports of a secret visit to Israel by a Saudi official which have appeared on some media are unfounded,” a spokesman for the Saudi foreign ministry says.
“Saudi Arabia has always been transparent as regards contacts and visits” to foreign countries, the spokesman says in a statement carried by the official SPA news agency.
Israeli radio last month reported that Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman had secretly met officials in Israel. Israeli officials never confirmed the reports.
