A convoy of high-ranking Saudi officials is in the occupied West Bank and Jordan River for the first time since Israel seized the territory from Jordan in the 1967 war.
Hours after the arrival of the officials, the Minister of Tourism of Israel also landed in Saudi Arabia, to attend a meeting of the United Nations.
Haim Katz became the first Israeli minister to lead a group of officials to visit Saudi Arabia, according to his office.
The important visits come after the leaders of Saudi Arabia and Israel expressed their good words about efforts to establish diplomatic relations between the two countries.
The United States has recently intervened to reach a complex settlement between its two main allies in the region.
An agreement between the most powerful countries in the region will bring about a radical change in the politics of the Middle East and will provide a major victory in America's foreign policy.
On Tuesday morning, the first ambassador of Saudi Arabia in Palestine, Nayef al-Sudairi, who is also the ambassador of Jordan, went by car to the West Bank and the Jordan River through the Karama crossing for a two-day visit.
Israel is in control of the crossing at the border, and it has to give permission before its arrival. The Palestinian Ministry of Foreign Affairs described the incident as "an important milestone" in relations between them and the Riyadh government.
The Saudi diplomat was welcomed with music in Ramallah, where the Palestinian Authority has its headquarters.
At the president's palace, Nayef a-Sudairi watched the parade of honor from the troops lined up to greet him, while the slogans of Saudi Arabia and the Palestinian people were played.
He then handed over the embassy arrest documents to Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas during a ceremony. Addressing the media,
Mallam Sudairi tried to emphasize confidence to the Palestinian people on any progress. He cited a recent interview with Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman on Fox News.
Prince Mohammed said that "we are always getting closer" to reaching an agreement to normalize relations between his country and Israel, adding that the issue of the Palestinian people is still "very important" as part of the discussion.
