Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu will meet Greek Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis in Jerusalem tomorrow.
Netanyahu last met Mitsotakis in October 2023, shortly after the Hamas invasion of southern Israel.
President Isaac Herzog will host Mitsotakis tomorrow afternoon at the President’s Residence in Jerusalem, says Herzog’s office.
Israel and Greece enjoy a growing strategic defense and energy alliance. Athens is in talks with Israel to buy advanced artillery systems and to purchase an Iron Dome-like missile defense system.
The two countries also see Turkey as a regional adversary.
Greek Foreign Minister George Gerapetritis was in Israel last month.
