Chief of Israel’s intelligence agency, the Mossad, Yossi Cohen, has visited Bahrain on Wednesday, the latest trip by an Israeli official to the kingdom since both countries signed a peace treaty last month.
Cohen was welcomed by chief of Bahraini national intelligence agency Adel bin Khalifa and head of the Strategic Security Bureau Ahmed bin Abdulaziz Al Khalifa, the Bahraini news agency BNA reported.
Both sides discussed issues of mutual interest and underlined the importance of the Declaration of Peace Support that Bahrain and Israel have signed.
The officials confirmed that the pact will significantly contribute to consolidating stability, promoting values of peace in the region and opening up prospects for cooperation between the two countries, BNA added.
