The Biden administration’s antisemitism envoy Deborah Lipstadt will be in Israel on Wednesday and Thursday, where she will meet with President Isaac Herzog, along with diplomats from the Foreign Ministry, the State Department says.

The visit, Lipstadt’s fourth to Israel and fifth to the Middle East and North Africa, marks her final overseas visit as special envoy.
