The Impressive TimesTel Aviv [Israel], August 7, 2025 : Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu held a significant meeting with Indian Ambassador to Israel, J.P. Singh, on Thursday at his office in Jerusalem. The discussions centered around deepening bilateral cooperation, particularly in the areas of security and economic growth.
According to a post by the Israeli Prime Minister’s Office (PMO) on social media platform X (formerly Twitter), the leaders exchanged views on enhancing strategic ties between the two nations, reflecting the warm and forward-looking political relationship India and Israel share.
The meeting comes amid ongoing global calls to jointly combat terrorism—a challenge that has deeply impacted both India and Israel over the years.
In July, Kobbi Shoshani, Consul General of Israel in Mumbai, emphasized the need for global unity against terrorism. Referring to a statement by India’s External Affairs Minister S. Jaishankar at the Shanghai Cooperation Organisation (SCO) Council of Foreign Ministers, Shoshani asserted:
“India and Israel have suffered from terrorism for too many years. If all big countries do not denounce terrorist activities, terrorism is going to continue. This is not just in the interest of India and Israel, but of the entire world.”
The Ministry of External Affairs (MEA) also underlined that India and Israel are strategic partners, maintaining bilateral consultation mechanisms across sectors such as defence, counter-terrorism, agriculture, water management, and technology.
This high-level engagement reinforces the shared commitment of both countries to deepen strategic ties and address mutual challenges through collaboration and innovation.
