Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s office has firmly rejected rumors that his visit to India was postponed due to security concerns following a recent blast near Delhi’s Red Fort. On November 25, the Prime Minister’s Office announced via the social media platform X that both nations are currently in discussions to set a new date for the visit and emphasized Netanyahu’s complete trust in India’s security under Prime Minister Narendra Modi.
The official account from the Israeli Prime Minister’s Office reiterated the strong ties between Netanyahu and Modi, affirming that teams are actively coordinating a rescheduled visit. Reports had previously suggested that Netanyahu planned to visit New Delhi in December, marking his first official trip to India since 2018. These plans had been delayed amid concerns following a terrorist attack near the Red Fort that resulted in multiple casualties.
Despite the tragic circumstances, Netanyahu expressed his condolences to Modi and the people of India in light of the deadly car bombing, which took several lives and left many injured. The Israeli Prime Minister’s Office also extended heartfelt sympathies through a message on Twitter, stating, “To our dear friend Narendra Modi and the brave people of India, I and the people of Israel express our deepest condolences to the families of the victims. Israel stands firmly with you in this grief.”
In his message, Netanyahu highlighted the enduring bond between India and Israel, noting that both nations are ancient civilizations that uphold eternal truths. He concluded with a powerful statement, asserting that while terror may impact their cities, it would never deter their spirits. The unwavering light of their nations will ultimately prevail over any darkness posed by their adversaries.
