Israeli Defense Minister Israel Katz has lauded a major defense agreement signed between Israel and Greece, dubbed "Achilles Shield." The deal aims to deepen strategic and security cooperation between the two nations.

Katz, speaking on Monday, highlighted his recent visit to Greece as a testament to the strong strategic ties and shared commitment to further strengthening the relationship. He noted that during his meeting with his Greek counterpart, they agreed to enhance bilateral security collaboration.

"Israel and Greece share common strategic interests and face common regional challenges," Katz stated. He implied a veiled jab at Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan, suggesting that at a time when "hegemonic powers" seek to expand their influence and destabilize the region, Israel and Greece will bolster their security and strategic partnership.
