Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is scheduled to depart for Chad on Sunday.

Recently, Israel and the Muslim-majority African country have bolstered bilateral ties.

In late November, Chadian President Idriss Déby became the country's first leader to make an official visit to Israel since the state's founding. During his historic visit, Déby announced Chad would move to renew bilateral ties with Israel, which were severed in 1972.

Also during his visit, Déby said his country, an Arab League member, could assist in helping Israel renew diplomatic ties with Sudan.

Déby noted that "the world is changing before our eyes. Crises and wars we knew are changing as well. We don't wish them on today's generation or future generations. There's a time for war and a time for peace. Our message is global to all leaders. Chad doesn't presume to speak for black Africa. Chad comes to renew bilateral diplomatic relations.

He said that "if Chad can be a facilitator, Chad will not hesitate."
