About this video
After nearly nine years, Prime Minister Narendra Modi is set to return to Israel, and the timing could not be more significant. The visit, scheduled for February 27 and 28, marks Modi’s first trip to Israel in his third term and signals a renewed push to strengthen one of India’s most important strategic partnerships in West Asia.

The visit comes amid intense geopolitical churn in the region, with the Gaza conflict, rising security tensions, and shifting global alliances. India has carefully balanced its position, condemning the October 7 Hamas terror attacks while continuing to call for humanitarian law to be upheld in Gaza. During recent conversations, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu briefed Modi on the Gaza Peace Plan, underlining the diplomatic weight of the engagement.
Strategic cooperation remains the backbone of India–Israel ties, spanning defence, counter-terrorism, cybersecurity, drones, missiles, and surveillance systems. Israel continues to be a crucial defence technology partner for India. Trade and technology are also in focus, with free trade agreement talks gaining momentum and growing collaboration in agriculture, water management, semiconductors, AI, and innovation.
The visit could also boost the India-Middle East-Europe Economic Corridor, or IMEC, launched at the G20 Summit in 2023. Beyond symbolism, Modi’s return to Israel reflects continuity, confidence, and India’s pragmatic approach to global diplomacy.
