Netanyahu could visit Kyiv - media

According to an Ukrinform correspondent, Israel Hayom reported this on Tuesday, based on conversations with officials.

"The officials confirmed that the matter is being considered, although the Prime Minister's Office declined to comment on the matter," the report said.

It added that with Foreign Minister Eli Cohen's visit to Ukraine last week not prompting a strong reaction from Russia, officials believe that under the circumstances, Netanyahu can visit Kyiv without causing a stir in Moscow.

"A Ukrainian official told Israel Hayom that an invitation has already been extended to the prime minister, but a date for the visit has not been set yet," the report said.

So far, Jerusalem has refrained from providing Kyiv with weapon and defense systems for fear of triggering conflict with Russia, which has a military presence in Syria. It has, instead, opted for humanitarian aid and was the first country to open a field hospital on Ukrainian territory after the outbreak of the war.
