Yes, mostly true based on verified sources:

- Economic: Bilateral trade ~$6.5B (2024, excl. defense), but Israel ranks ~7-10th among India's Asian partners, not 3rd (top: China, UAE, Saudi Arabia).

- Defense: India is Israel's largest arms buyer (41% of exports); examples like Phalcon AWACS and Searcher-II are correct.

- Science/Tech: I4F fund established for joint R&D; Israel joined ISA in 2021.

"8th Governorate" seems metaphorical for strong ties, not literal.
