Herzog confirms he’ll represent Israel at Queen Elizabeth’s funeral – President to fly to London Sunday for two days of events honoring late British ruler; Lapid will be in New York at UN General Assembly | Timesofisrael

President Isaac Herzog confirmed on Tuesday that he will represent Israel at Queen Elizabeth II’s state funeral in London on September 19.
Hebrew-language reports from Saturday had indicated that Herzog would attend, and that Prime Minister Yair Lapid — who will land a day later in New York for the UN General Assembly — would not fly to the British queen’s service.
