Israel and Ukraine have agreed to begin talks focused on countering the "threat" posed by Iran, marking closer ties between the two nations. Ukrainian Foreign Minister Andriy Sybiga called Iran an "existential threat" at a Kyiv press conference with Israeli Foreign Minister Gideon Saar, the most senior Israeli official to visit Ukraine since 2023. Both countries accuse Iran—Russia's ally—of destabilizing actions, including supplying drones to Moscow. Saar thanked Ukraine for opposing Iranian nuclear ambitions, while Kyiv backed Israel’s recent bombing of Iranian sites. The new dialogue aims to address shared security concerns and limit Iran's military and technological capabilities. (PC: NDTV)
