JERUSALEM (AA) – Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is scheduled to visit Chad on Sunday, according to an Israeli television channel.
“The prime minister will leave Sunday for an hours-long visit to Chad, where he will meet with Chadian President Idriss Deby, ” Israel’s Channel 13 reported on Thursday.
“It remains unclear whether the two sides will announce the resumption of bilateral ties during the visit, ” the broadcaster added.
Neither Netanyahu's office nor the Chadian government have commented on the issue of normalized relations.
Deby visited Israel last November, becoming the first leader of the majority-Muslim Central African country to visit the self-proclaimed Jewish state since ties were suspended in 1972.
