President Isaac Herzog has arrived in London ahead of the coronation of King Charles this weekend, his office says.
Herzog and his wife, Michal, will attend a reception tomorrow afternoon at Buckingham Palace alongside other visiting presidents, royals, prime ministers and world leaders.
On Saturday morning, the pair will represent Israel at the official coronation at Westminster Abbey. They will stay nearby the location and walk there as to not violate Shabbat, his office says.
The president is expected to hold meetings with both Prime Minister Rishi Sunak and opposition leader Keir Starmer while he is in London.
