Israeli media outlets reported on Friday that the occupation is interested in selling air defense systems to Saudi Arabia during US President Joe Biden's upcoming visit.

Israeli Kan TV's military expert Itay Blumental said, answering a question on whether there is an interesting plan that "Israel" wants to push forward during Biden's visit, that "According to estimates, 'Israel' over the coming weeks will try to push forward a security deal with Saudi Arabia, one that will involve the sale of air defense systems." 

Blumental further noted that this will all take place under US sponsorship, as "Israel" and Saudi Arabia do not share official diplomatic relations.

He also added that it's expected that Biden will meet with Israeli Security Minister Benny Gantz, and Israeli Chief of the General Staff Aviv Kochavi. During the meeting, Biden will listen to a briefing on Israeli air defense systems, like the Iron Dome, and the Hetz.

This, according to Blumental, involves agreements with Gulf countries, and it can be said that in the last few weeks some transport aircraft landed in Ovda Airforce base, "and not more can be said on why the planes landed there."

The White House announced on June 14 that Biden will visit both "Israel" and Saudi Arabia during his trip in West Asia.

Following the announcement of the trip, Biden said that part of his visit to Saudi Arabia concerns Israeli security.
