Members of the Israeli delegation to the signing ceremony of the normalization agreement with the United Arab Emirates will only be able to board the plane if they are found negative by the corona test they will perform before the flight.
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and senior officials of his bureau are expected to fly to the United States on Sunday to attend the signing ceremony of a normalization of relations with the United Arab Emirates, against the background of the severe spread of the corona plague.
Due to this, the journey will take place under very strict health procedures and will be as short as possible.

All passengers on the plane will be required to undergo a corona test before boarding the plane, and will only be allowed to board it if they are found to be negative for the virus.
Prime Minister's flights abroad usually have a large number of available seats, but on this trip there will be special care to keep spaces between the passengers. Also, everyone present on the plane - from the prime minister and his office to the crew on the plane - will be required to wear masks. For the entire duration of the flight.
Upon arrival in Washington, members of the Israeli delegation will be accommodated in one hotel and will be required to maintain full capsule conditions throughout their stay there.
The journalists who will accompany the flight, who on regular visits are transferred to a hotel other than that of the members of the delegation, will this time stay at the same hotel where Netanyahu will be staying.
In addition, members of the entourage will not be allowed to move freely in the city, but will be required to stay at the hotel throughout the visit.
The gala ceremony is expected to take place on Tuesday at noon (local time) at the White House, attended by President Donald Trump.
According to the plan, the Israeli delegation will begin its journey back to Israel immediately upon its completion.
