Prime Minister Narendra Modi will travel to Israel for a two-day state visit on from today. Prime Minister Narendra Modi, in response to Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu's cordial message, said that he looked forward to their discussions. PM Modi visited Israel as prime minister in 2017, before Netanyahu reciprocated with a visit to India the following year. Netanyahu said the Israel-India axis will be part of a wider regional alliance called ‘hexagon’ to counter common “radical” adversaries. Andreas Krieg, associate professor of security studies at King’s College London, told Al Jazeera that the Israeli prime minister may be overselling his idea.
