On the way to another dramatic announcement?
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu announced today (Monday) to ministers in the middle of a cabinet meeting that he "should go out for a moment" due to "a conversation of national importance."
The last time Netanyahu took a similar step was a few hours before Trump announced the peace agreement with the United Arab Emirates.
Even then he went out in the middle of the meeting and told those present that very soon they would know why he had to leave.
Last week, Israel signed historic agreements with the Emirates and Bahrain. However, US President Donald Trump has declared that there are other countries "in line" to sign an agreement with Israel. Among the countries mentioned were Sudan and Saudi Arabia.
