Gantz earlier held his first meeting with Turkish Defense Minister Hulusi Akar since 2010 after years of strained bilateral ties.

"We welcomed the re-establishment of defense ties between our countries as an important step towards working together to promote regional peace and stability," Gantz tweeted after meeting with Akar.
