Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu reportedly left Israel secretly amid strict and unusual measures for his visit to the United States due to security concerns stemming from Iran.
In the news from Channel 12 television broadcasting in Israel, the precautions taken before Netanyahu's US trip after a 5-month hiatus drew attention.
FLIGHT INFORMATION KEPT SECRET
According to the report, due to potential security threats from Iran, the departure location and time of Netanyahu's plane were kept confidential. It was noted that the Israeli Prime Minister's plane took off from the Nevatim Military Air Base belonging to the Israeli army in Beersheba, rather than from Ben-Gurion Airport in Tel Aviv, and this was claimed to be a security measure against a possible threat from Iran.
WENT TO THE US WITHOUT JOURNALISTS
While it was pointed out that the Prime Minister's Office did not announce the plane's departure time in advance, contrary to normal procedures, it was also reported that Netanyahu's video statement made just before the flight was released with a delay.
Furthermore, it was noted that no media personnel accompanied Netanyahu on the US flight, and no statement was made by the Prime Minister's Office on the matter.
Netanyahu, who is set to meet with US President Trump in Washington tomorrow, announced that they will discuss all agenda items, including Iran, during their meeting.
