An Israel-India joint committee on terrorism will meet in Israel for the first time this month to discuss common terror threats. The meeting was coordinated following India\'s request for assistance in establishing an anti-terror network. Last month Moslem separatists launched an assault on the Indian Parliament in New Delhi, killing eight persons.



Earlier this month, Indian security services in the Kashmir apprehended five terrorists, some of whom are affiliated with the al-Qaeda network.



The Indian government expressed interest in purchasing the \"Arrow\" anti-missile missile from Israel, which to date has not been supplied to foreign countries. Two weeks ago, political dialogue took place in New Delhi between an Israel delegation, including senior Foreign Ministry officials, and the head of the Indian Foreign Ministry. The Indian representatives said that they strongly desire to strengthen their ties with Israel.
