The Israeli envoy said it is the most advanced medical equipment that they have developed especially for fighting COVID-19. "Some of it was contributed by companies, they just love India and some of it was purchased with special fund allocated by our Foreign Minister," he said.

Malka had expressed confidence that these technologies will help further bolster the capabilities to tackle COVID-19. These trials are a part of a multi-pronged mission visiting India from Israel to cooperate on COVID-19 research and development, further cementing the strategic relationship between the two countries.
