Now which country could that be....?
A senior adviser to the leader of a large Muslim-majority country has recently visited Israel despite the two countries having no diplomatic relations, Israel Hayom has learned.
Although under censorship restrictions Israel Hayom cannot name the Asian country or the people involved due to potential national security and diplomatic sensitivities, we can report that the adviser headed a delegation of senior officials for meetings in Tel Aviv some two weeks ago.
The talks between the two sides come on the heels of the normalization deals struck between Israel and several Arab states through the active mediation of the Trump administration. The deals, known collectively as the Abraham Accords, have been announced over the course of the past several months, with the United Arab Emirates being the first, followed by Bahrain and Sudan.
Just last week, Morocco became the latest country to publicly announce the establishment of full diplomatic relations with the Jewish state.
Saudi Arabia, as the de facto leader of the Sunni-Arab bloc in the region, has been reportedly active behind the scenes to lay the groundwork for US-led normalization effort and it has recently granted overflight rights to Israeli airliners.
