Israeli high-school students won six medals in this year's International Mathematical Olympiad.

The competition was held between July 3 to July 14 in Cluj-Napoca, Romania. The competition had 615 contestants representing 116 countries.

Israeli participants claimed two silver and four bronze medals, and as a result, Israel is now ranked 26th in the competition's overall ranking. Contestants from United States, China and Russia came out on top.

Israel has participated in the competition since 1979, and has so far claimed 13 gold, 52 silver and 96 bronze medals. Its contestants have also received 24 honorable mentions.

Educational Minister Naftali Bennett praised the Israeli squad: "Israel can be proud! Math and science are the foundation for the continued existence of Israel as a startup nation; this is why in recent years I have put a particular emphasis on those subjects," he said.
