Israel and Morocco have agreed to upgrade their diplomatic relations to the ambassadorial level, establishing full embassies in each other's countries. The agreement was reached during a trilateral meeting in New York on Tuesday evening involving Israeli Foreign Minister G Gideon Sa'ar, his Moroccan counterpart Nasser Bourita, and U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations Michael Wolf. The move aims to strengthen bilateral ties between the two nations.

In addition to the diplomatic upgrade, both countries committed to enhancing economic cooperation. This includes working towards agreements on investment protection and the avoidance of double taxation, as well as fostering collaboration across various economic and trade sectors.

Air travel between Israel and Morocco is also set to expand, with plans to resume direct flights operated by Moroccan airlines. This measure is expected to be implemented in the coming period, with a target of the end of the year.

Furthermore, Israel and Morocco agreed to organize reciprocal high-level visits in the upcoming months as part of their ongoing efforts to bolster their relationship.
