Prime Minister Narendra Modi will travel to Israel on February 25-26 for a two-day visit, a trip expected to further strengthen defence and strategic cooperation between the two nations. Ahead of the visit, both countries are preparing to expand collaboration in advanced defence technologies, with security cooperation likely to take centre stage.
An agreement in the form of a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) on security cooperation is expected to be signed during the visit. However, no major defence deal is anticipated at this stage, as defence collaboration between India and Israel is already ongoing. The partnership is estimated to be worth nearly USD 10 billion in the coming years.
