Israel will begin testing its civilian alert system that warns of incoming missiles in Kyiv next month.
This is reported by The Algemeiner with reference to Israeli media outlets, according to Ukrinform.
The test of the system will be conducted by Israel’s Home Front Command.
“The system will be connected to Ukraine’s radar monitoring, enabling faster and more accurate alerts to be delivered to mobile phone users, as well as activating air raid sirens only in those areas affected by the ongoing Russian onslaught,” the report says.
Israeli Foreign Minister Eli Cohen, during his visit to Ukraine in February, promised the delivery of the alert system within six months.
“In the intervening period, Israeli and Ukrainian military officials have reportedly met several times in Poland to discuss the system’s deployment and the necessary modifications, given the difference in size between the two countries as well as the types of missiles utilized by Russian forces,” the report says.
As reported, the Israeli Defense Ministry on Thursday announced it began talks to sell an advanced missile defense system to Germany.
Earlier, Israel signed a $400 million deal to sell Spike anti-tank missiles to Greece, used by many EU and NATO countries and produced by Israeli state-owned defence contractor Rafael.
