The occupation regime Foreign Minister Yisrael Katz reportedly visited the United Arab Emirates on Sunday to discuss the occupation troops held in the Gaza Strip.

According to the zionists media,  Katz, who also holds the ministry of intelligence portfolio, met with senior UAE officials. Katz flew to Abu Dhabi on Sunday and left on Monday.

This was Katz's second public visit to a Gulf country in eight months. In November, as transportation minister, he attended a transportation conference in Oman.

Katz met with a prominent minister from the Government of the United Arab Emirates in the capital Abu Dhabi, according to reports.

The zionist minister also attended the Environment Conference organized by the United Nations and met with former UN Secretary-General Ban Ki Mun to raise the issue of captive occupation gangs.

A high-ranking former officer who served in the occupation army had admitted in November that they had failed to recapture the occupation gangs Hadar Goldin and Oron Shaul from the al-Qassam Brigades.

Katz also met with a prominent UAE figure in Abu Dhabi, and the sides also discussed bilateral relations, as well as the threat posed by Iran in the region, the occupation regime said.

The statement said that Katz and UAE officials also discussed developing ties between the two countries in the spheres of high tech, energy, agriculture, and water management.

Katz also presented a plan that would link the Gulf countries to the Mediterranean Sea via train tracks running through Jordan and zionists. Katz presented this plan at an international railroad conference in Oman in November.

Katz also met on the sidelines of the environment conference with UN secretary-general Antonio Guterres and raised the issue of Israel soldiers being held in Gaza.
