Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu will pay a visit to Silicon Valley before his trip to New York to speak at the UN General Assembly later this month.
According to his office, the prime minister will depart Israel next Sunday evening, and land in San Francisco, California, on Monday.
After spending the day on the West Coast, he will fly to New York, arriving there on Tuesday.
Netanyahu is expected to address the UNGA on Thursday or Friday, and remain in New York over Shabbat, leaving just after it ends in order to land back in Israel before Yom Kippur begins on Sunday evening.
