Türkiye, Israel Expected To Resume Flights

Countries to sign aviation agreement, says Israeli Prime Ministry.

A new agreement between Türkiye and Israel is expected to pave the way for the resumption of flights between the two countries.
A new bilateral Turkish-Israeli aviation agreement will be signed on Thursday for the first time since 1951, the Israeli Prime Ministry Press Office said in a statement.
The decision came after a meeting between transport ministers of the two countries a few months ago.
As part of the agreement, "the flights between both countries will resume."
Israeli Transport Minister Merav Michaeli said: "Aviation relations are a strategic tool for Israel's economic development and of particular importance toward Israel's regional position."
