The invitation came via Emirati Ambassador to Israel Israel Mohamed Al Khaja who met with Bennett on Tuesday.
The two met at the Prime Minister's Office to discuss expanding ties between Jerusalem and Abu Dhabi, as part of the Abraham Accords that saw Israel and four Arab nations normalize ties in 2020, as well as regional cooperation.
Bennett thanked the Emirati leader for the invitation. "The stronger the bond between our nations, the stronger the security and stability for the entire region," he said.
