JERUSALEM: Israeli prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu today thanked authorities in Saudi Arabia – with which his country has no formal ties – for their “warm attitude” following an emergency aircraft landing in Jeddah.Saudi airspace had been closed to flights to and from Israel until July 2022, when it opened to coincide with a visit by US president Joe Biden to the region.
Today the Israeli foreign ministry said an Israeli charter flight had retrieved the Israelis from Jeddah. Though Saudi Arabia was not one of the Gulf and Arab countries to normalise ties with Israel as part of the 2020 US-brokered Abraham Accords, speculation has grown of an impending deal. But Israeli press commentators suggested such efforts have been severely compromised on the back of Israel’s announcement of a meeting between its foreign minister and his Libyan counterpart in Rome.
