Israeli Prime Minister Naftali Bennett has tested positive for coronavirus disease (Covid-19), days ahead of his scheduled visit to India. Bennett's office said that the Israeli Prime Minister is feeling well and will continue to work while self-isolating at home.

Earlier this month, Bennett had announced his first official visit to India at the invitation of Prime Minister Narendra Modi. During his visit, Bennett was supposed to meet PM Modi and other senior government officials, and also visit the Jewish community in the country.

The Israel PMO said in a release that the purpose of the visit was to advance and strengthen the strategic alliance between the countries, and to expand bilateral ties.
