Prince William to Make State Visit to Israel
Britain’s Prince William, Duke of Cambridge and grandson of the sitting Monarch, made history Thursday by announcing plans for a state visit to Israel, the West Bank and Jordan later this summer. He will be the first member of the British Royal family to come to Israel since the founding of the modern State. The visit, said an announcement by Kensington Palace, “is at the request of Her Majesty’s Government and has been welcomed by the Israeli, Jordanian and Palestinian authorities.”
