The Israeli occupation's delegation charged with handling the issue of the Jewish Agency for "Israel's" activity in Moscow will meet later today with representatives of the Russian Ministry of Justice regarding the issue, Israeli media reported on Monday.

The Israeli occupation's delegation will convey two messages to the Russians, Israel Hayom reported. The first one is: "We are playing by the rules, and we respect [Russia's] legal measures."

The second, however, says that "Tel Aviv" too is involved in the issue, and it is not only about the Jewish Agency. "It is clear that the issue is a premeditated diplomatic crisis; therefore, it is unlikely that a solution to the issue could be found by negotiations between the legal teams."

The Basmanny District Court in Moscow adjourned on Thursday a session to consider the request of the Russian Ministry of Justice to liquidate the Jewish Agency in Russia.

After leaving the court building, one of the defense lawyers said the session had ended, advising to address the Ministry of Justice for comments, at a time when no decisions are expected at today's meeting.

As stated in a communication posted on the court’s website, the two parties to the case were summoned to a preparatory conversation session before considering the case on the merits, and according to judicial authorities, “the talk at the current stage is about preliminary hearings and pretrial verification.”

An Israeli newspaper had revealed that the Russian government had sent a letter to the Jewish Agency, asking the latter to stop all its operations in the country, saying that "the Russian decision could undermine the ability of Russian Jews to immigrate to Israel."

On July 15, Israeli media reported that Russian President Vladimir Putin had signed a new Russian law to "paralyze Jewish and Israeli organizations," commenting that "the fear is that the new law will create an impossible situation for Jewish and Israeli organizations to operate in Russia."

Israeli media then reported on there being "great tension between Russia and Israel," against the background of reports from Moscow that the Jewish Agency had been suspended, noting that this matter was linked to "Prime Minister Yair Lapid's statement regarding the war in Ukraine," describing the suspension of the agency as "political punishment".

On July 25, the Russian Deputy Foreign Minister clarified that the investigation was not a political move against the occupation. However, Israeli officials fear that it might be a sign of Moscow's dissatisfaction with "Tel Aviv's" foreign policy toward Ukraine, Israeli media said.
