Israeli Prime Minister Yair Lapid is to meet Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan on the sidelines of the UN General Assembly on Tuesday, as relations between the two countries thaw, Trend reports citing Hurriyet Daily News.
Lapid’s office said he would travel to New York on Monday night, ahead of an address to the General Assembly on Thursday.
A source said the meeting with Erdogan would take place on Tuesday.
It came as Israel’s armed forces chief Lieutenant General Aviv Kohavi announced his first visit to France and Poland to meet with senior officials in the two countries.
Last month, Türkiye and Israel announced the full restoration of diplomatic ties following years of strained relations.
In May, Mevlut Cavushoglu became the first Turkish foreign minister to visit Israel in 15 years.
Erdogan described a fence-mending visit to Ankara by Israeli President Isaac Herzog in March as "a turning point in our relations".
