A passenger, who travelled back to Israel from the United Arab Emirates with Prime Minister Naftali Bennett, was identified as a coronavirus carrier on Tuesday.
The Prime Minister’s Office said all those on the flight will enter quarantine and undergo PCR testing, in line with Health Ministry guidelines.
Bennett was returning from a two-day visit to the UAE – the first formal visit by an Israeli prime minister to the United Arab Emirates – which Israeli leaders have dubbed a resounding success.
This is a developing story.
