Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi was welcomed by Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on Wednesday (February 25) as he begins his two-day visit to Israel.

During the weekly cabinet meeting, Netanyahu has commended the friendship with Modi and referred to this visit as a chance to deepen the relations by cooperating on diplomatic and financial fronts.

Modi, a Hindu nationalist, became the first prime minister in India's history to visit Israel in 2017, and is expected to deliver remarks to Israel's Knesset, or parliament, and lay a wreath at Yad Vashem, Israel's official Holocaust memorial.
