Israel and Greece sign security cooperation agreement

Israeli Defense Minister Moshe Ya’alon and his Greek counterpart Panos Kammenos have signed a security cooperation agreement between the two countries.

This came during a meeting on Sunday between the two ministers, according to Israel Radio.

Ya’alon praised the present military and security cooperation between Israel and Greece, which he says is expressed in the joint military exercises conducted by the armies of the two countries.

The Israeli air force held joint military exercises with its Greek counterpart last April that took place in Greek airspace and lasted for several days.
