An Israeli delegation of high-ranked officials left for Bahrain Wednesday morning to discuss the final details of the historic peace agreement between the countries, outlet Walla News reported.
The mission to Manama was decided on Tuesday night during a phone call between Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Bahraini Crown Prince Salman bin Hamad Al Khalifa.
Bahrain’s Minister of Foreign Affairs Khalid bin Ahmed Al Khalifa participated last week in the landmark Abraham Accords ceremony at the White House, alongside his Emirati counterpart.

The signing in Washington, however, constituted only a “declaration of peace” — not a formal peace agreement.
The Israeli expedition is headed by Acting Director General of the Prime Minister’s Office Ronen Peretz and Director-General of the Foreign Ministry Alon Ushpiz, alongside senior officials of the National Security Council and of other government ministries.
Jerusalem and Manama are set to formulate a detailed peace agreement that will cover a range of areas, according to Walla News.
