Prime Minister Naftali Bennett on Sunday declared the fight against climate change a "national security" priority and pledged to "facilitate" investments in green energy.
Days before the COP26 global climate summit in the British city of Glasgow - which Bennett is due to attend - the Israeli government announced the creation of "working groups" on climate change.
"The climate crisis is one of the major issues on the world agenda," Bennett said, calling it a "new National Security Interest" of Israel.
