Israel buying aluminum from Bahrain, it's only newsworthy in Muslim media




Iran's ABNA news agency reports:

 Israeli occupation began importing aluminium from Bahrain, Manama-based newspaper al-Ayam reported on Sunday, citing an interview with Eitan Na’eh, the Zionist ambassador to Bahrain.

“We have already started buying aluminium from Bahrain, and I am sure this aspect will see growth in purchasing rates,” he added.

Bahrain Aluminium is one the largest smelters in the Middle East region. However, the ambassador did not specify the quantities or the value of Israel’s aluminium imports from Bahrain

Israel’s airline El Al should start flights to Manama soon, Na’eh said, according to the newspaper. Bahrain’s Gulf Air in September announced the launch of direct flights to Tel Aviv, according to the newspaper.

The occupation ambassador also said that in the near future, An air transport agreement will be launched that will allow the transport of goods from ships docked in Bahrain to aircraft bound for occupied Palestine.

I couldn't find any Israeli media outlet reporting this story from yesterday, at least in English, but it was reported in Arab and Iranian sites. (Plus Reuters.)

Normalization with Israel is now normal. Only those who hate it consider it news.

And that's good news!
