Lesotho and Israel maintain full diplomatic relations. Lesotho, along with Malawi and Swaziland, was one of the few sub-Saharan African countries that did not sever ties with Israel following the 1973 Yom Kippur War. Israel's diplomatic representation for Lesotho is handled through its embassy in South Africa.

Here's a more detailed breakdown:
Christianity: Roughly 90% of the population identifies as Christian. 
Protestantism: This is the largest Christian denomination, encompassing various groups like Anglicans, evangelical Christians, Methodists, and Pentecostals. 
Catholicism: Roman Catholics make up a significant portion of the Christian population. 
Other Religions: Muslims, Hindus, Baha'is, and followers of traditional indigenous religions constitute a small minority. 
Non-Religious: A small percentage of the population does not identify with any religion. 
Syncretism: It's common for Christians, particularly in rural areas, to blend traditional Basotho beliefs and practices with their Christian faith.
