President Reuven Rivlin says Prince Charles sent a letter to him this evening confirming his arrival in Israel in January for the World Holocaust Forum.

“In his letter, Prince Charles thanked the president for the opportunity to participate in the International Leaders’ Forum on 23 January 2020 and added that he was coming in order to express his solemn respects on behalf of the people of the United Kingdom,” the President’s Residence says in a statement.

“The prince made special mention of the work undertaken by Yad Vashem and its ongoing work to ensure that humanity never forgets the horrors inflicted on the Jewish people during the most awful period in human history,” the statement says.
