Israeli Prime Minister Naftali Bennett, alongside his entourage, was forced to enter isolation after someone who was on his flight tested positive for COVID-19, Qazet.az reports citing The Jerusalem Post.

Bennett was returning from his trip to the UAE yesterday when it was discovered Tuesday morning that a person present on the flight was a verified coronavirus carrier.

The Prime Minister's Office (PMO) contacted the Ministry of Health for instructions once it was made aware that an infected person had been on the flight.
