The President of the Communal Council of Fez, Abdeslam Bekkali, discussed, Thursday, during a visit he made at the head of a delegation of the Council in the Israeli city of Kfar Saba, northeast of Tel Aviv, with the mayor of the municipality, Rafi Saar, ways to strengthen relations of cooperation and partnership between the two Councils.
According to the Municipal Council of Kfar Saba, Bekkali was accompanied during this visit by Aziz Lebbar, President of the Regional Council of Tourism of Fez, and Hicham Benmakhlouf, President of the Moroccan-Israeli Friendship Committee of Fez.
On this occasion, the mayor of Kfar Saba congratulated the Moroccan delegation for the qualification of the national team for the quarterfinals of the World Cup (Qatar-2022), and gave him a gift on behalf of the inhabitants of the municipality.
Saar stressed the importance of establishing and strengthening cooperative relations between the two Councils, exchanging visits and participating in joint cultural and social events.
“I met Mr. Bekkali during the COP-27 in Sharm el-Sheikh, and from there the idea of a historic visit to our city was born,” he recalled, saying that this visit is just a first step on the way to closer cooperation in various fields.
“I am very pleased to be here, and I hope that this visit will be a foundation for the future and for future generations in both cities,” said, for his part, Bekkali.
The Moroccan delegation was received on Wednesday, among more than 52 mayors from around the world, by Israeli President Isaac Herzog.
The Moroccan delegation was also received by the mayor of Al-Quds, Moshe Ya’alon, as part of a visit of the international delegation to the city to see its cultural, historical and modern mix, according to a statement from the municipality of Al-Quds.
