Morocco and Israel sign a defence deal, opening the way for possible military sales and cooperation, after both countries agreed to normalise relations last year
Tel Aviv said the memorandum of understanding signed in Rabat, as part of Defence Minister Gantz's visit, will establish formal cooperation on"operational planning, purchases, research development, and training".
Israeli Defence Minister Benny Gantz signed the document along with Abdellatif Loudiyi, Morocco's defence administration minister, in Rabat on Wednesday. A source briefed on the classified MoU said it does not stipulate specific defence deals, but rather provides a legal and regulatory framework for such agreements in the future.
