By Sammy,

The Prime Minister's Office says Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi is expected to be in Israel on Sunday. The visit follows remarks by Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, who told the Conference of Presidents that Modi would arrive "next week" as the two countries continue to strengthen ties.

Netanyahu described relations with India as a "tremendous alliance" and said the leaders would discuss expanded cooperation. He emphasized India's global stature, noting its population of 1.5 billion, and said Israel is "enormously popular" there. Modi first visited Israel in 2017, with Netanyahu traveling to India the following year, while a planned return trip by Netanyahu in recent months has faced repeated delays.
