Netanyahu is interested in cooperation on countering Iranian drones
According to the outlet, the Israeli request came "in the context of Ukraine’s extensive experience in intercepting Iranian-made drones" and with the intention of establishing Israeli-Ukrainian cooperation in this area.
Ukraine’s Ambassador to Israel, Yevhen Korniichuk, confirmed that such a request had been made, noting that the conversation has not yet taken place due to scheduling constraints.
He expressed hope that the leaders’ conversation would take place early next week.
