History
In the mid 1990s, while Israel and North African states slowly started diplomatic relations, Algeria remained one of the last countries to consider such a move. It was only when Israeli prime minister Ehud Barak met Algerian President Abdelaziz Bouteflika at the funeral of the Moroccan King Hasan II on July 25, 1999 that comments about rapprochement were made.
Britain's Department for Business, Innovation and Skills revealed in 2013 that Israel had exported military technology to Algeria around 2009. The equipment included gear for pilots, drone components, and radar technology.[1]
