The Israeli regime's embassy in the Egyptian capital, Cairo, has reopened after a four-year closure due to security concerns, PressTV reported.
Egypt "will always be the biggest and most important state in the region," the Israeli regime's foreign ministry director-general, Dore Gold, who flew to Cairo for the reopening ceremony, said on Wednesday.
The Israeli official added that the two sides were "working together" in "deflecting the threat" against them.
"This event taking place in Cairo is also the beginning of something new," the Israeli Foreign Ministry said in a statement regarding the event.
US Ambassador to Cairo Stephen Beecroft was among Israelis and Egyptians present at the event.
The embassy was closed on September 9, 2011, after thousands of protesters stormed the compound following the killing of six Egyptian policemen in August the same year by Israeli forces during cross-border operations on Egyptian soil in the Sinai Peninsula.
