Israeli military officials, led by Defense Ministry Director General Amir Baram, visited Morocco yesterday to deepen security ties and expand cooperation in military training and defense exports to strengthen the IDF's power build-up and "influence foreign policy."
Baram held high-level meetings with senior Moroccan defense officials, including the representative of the Minister in charge of the National Defense Administration, Abdellatif Loday, and the Inspector General of the Royal Armed Forces, Mohamed Brid. Officials of the Royal Palace and the intelligence services, acting according to the instructions of the King of Morocco, Mohammed VI, also participated in the discussions.
The Israeli Ministry of Health noted that security ties with Morocco have grown significantly since 2020, and especially during the last 3 years of the war. Israeli defense companies increasingly support the establishment of an independent Moroccan defense industry.
