Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi is set to visit Israel on February 25, marking his second trip to the country after his historic 2017 visit as the first Indian prime minister. The upcoming visit follows India’s recent condemnation of Israel’s expansion in the occupied West Bank. Modi’s visit is seen as significant, as few Global South leaders have visited Israel since a 2023 attack. India and Israel have strengthened ties in various sectors, despite India’s past support for Palestine. The evolution of India-Israel relations, from opposing the creation of Israel to recognizing the country in the 1950s, reflects a complex history that continues to shape India’s stance on Palestine.
