'We'll do what we can to protect lives in the fight against COVID and in the face of the threats posed to our people,' Israeli Prime Minister Naftali Bennett told Newsweek.
Concerns over a direct escalation between Iran and Israel loom over the region, but just as nearly every other country in the world, Israel is already at war with a different kind of enemy: COVID-19. Omicron, which has spread faster than previous variants of the coronavirus that has ravaged the globe for two years, is now a major concern.
"We'll do what we can to protect lives in the fight against COVID and in the face of the threats posed to our people," he added. UAE Foreign Minister Sheikh Abdullah bin Zayed Al Nahyan and Israeli Prime Minister Naftali Bennett walk together into the royal hall of Abu Dhabi International Airport during the latter's historic visit to Abu Dhabi on December 13 in this photo obtained exclusively by Newsweek. A senior Israeli official present on the trip said the talks focused largely on joint initiatives in trade, technology and climate change.
"The more prepared we are, the greater chances we'll have at winning the war against COVID," he added."We must move fast, hard and strong."
