WASHINGTON: Saudi Arabia agreed on Monday to let Israeli airliners cross its airspace en route to the United Arab Emirates after talks between Saudi officials and White House senior adviser Jared Kushner, a senior Trump administration official said.
Kushner and Middle East envoys Avi Berkowitz and Brian Hook raised the issue shortly after they arrived in Saudi Arabia for talks. “We were able to reconcile the issue,” the official told foreign media.
The agreement was hammered out just hours before Israel’s first commercial flight to the UAE was planned on Tuesday morning. The direct flights are an offshoot of normalization deals Israel reached this year with the UAE, Bahrain and Sudan. “This should resolve any issues that should occur with Israeli carriers taking people from Israel to the UAE and back and to Bahrain,” the official said.
