JERUSALEM (AP) Israel is sending 700,000 coronavirus vaccine doses to South Korea in exchange for a future shipment of the jabs, Prime Minister Naftali Bennett said Tuesday.
In a statement, Bennett said Israel will transfer the Pfizer vaccines to South Korea in an effort to inoculate more of the Asian nation’s citizens this month. South Korea will return the same number of doses to Israel as soon as September, he added.
“This is a win-win deal,” Bennett said in his statement. The agreement will “reduce the holes” in the vaccine’s availability.
