Rwanda is negotiating with the African Union and its development partners to open its borders to at least 30,000 African migrants who are reportedly trapped in a web of slave trade in Libya.
But officials in Kigali would not comment on reports in the Israeli press that Tel Aviv had offered Kigali money for each African immigrant it would take in.
