Our history

1. 1963

   The History of the Embassy began when Israel was the first country on 10th December 1963, to lay a foundation stone for her Embassy in Kenya, two (2) days before the declaration of Kenya’s independence on 12th December 1963.

2. 1973

   Although these relations ruptured in 1973 when the Organization of African Unity (OAU) Member States, including Kenya, resolved to sever ties with Israel because of the Arab – Israeli war of 1973 (Yom Kippur War), both countries continued to have low level people-people relations.

3. 1976

   In July 1976 Kenya supported Israel during the Entebbe raid.

4. 1988

   However, on 23rd December 1988 Kenya re-established Diplomatic relations with Israel.

5. 1994

   The historic visit to Israel in January 1994 by Kenya’s former President H.E. Daniel Arap Moi further enhanced our bilateral relations.

6. 1994

   Thereafter, Kenya’s first Ambassador to Israel was appointed in March 1994.
