As of 31 January 2022, the UK have four military personnel in Israel. They are all based in the British Embassy in Tel Aviv. They carry out key activities in Defence Engagement and Diplomacy, as well as carrying out key administrative processes. The personnel do not provide training, but help facilitate opportunities between the two countries. Periodically additional UK personnel visit Israel for training, exercises and engagement purposes.
