(26 Jun 2018) Prince William met with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu in the first-ever official visit of a member of the British royal family to the region.
Prince William met Netanyahu and his wife Sara on Tuesday, after visiting Jerusalem's Yad Vashem Holocaust memorial.
The memorial has recognised Prince William's great-grandmother, Princess Alice, as Righteous Among the Nations for her role in rescuing Jews during the Holocaust.
Though the trip is being billed as non-political, and places a special emphasis on technology and joint Israeli-Arab projects, William is also meeting with Israeli and Palestinian leaders, and visiting landmark Jerusalem sites at the heart of the century-old conflict.
For the 36-year-old William, second in line to the throne, it marks a high-profile visit that could burnish his international credentials.
