The ambassador of Israel to Ethiopia, Aleligne Admasu and Ethiopian Airlines high officials have discussed to enhance the conversion of Ethiopian passenger into cargo.

During the occasion, Ambassador Aleligne Admasu said that in the future, the two nations plan to teach and train Ethiopian students, engineers and technicians by opening a center in Ethiopia and giving services to the rest of Africa.

Israeli Aerospace industry and Ethiopian Airlines have recently cooperated on the conversion of Ethiopian second passenger aircraft to cargo.

The Ethiopian Airlines CEO, Mesfin Tasew noted that the conversion process has been delayed due to lack of spare parts.

He also said, “The second passenger aircraft conversion will be finalized in the coming month and soon the third conversion will start”

The Israeli Aerospace representative expressed willingness to expand the conversion of passenger into cargo in collaboration with Israel, U.S.A, and Ethiopia.
