Herzog also said he will also thank Johnson for the recent decision by the UK government to recognise the Palestinian Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas) as “a terrorist organisation”.
Palestine on Saturday rejected UK’s decision to designate Hamas as a terrorist group, calling it an unjustified attack on the Palestinian people.
This is Herzog’s first official trip to the UK since he was sworn in as president in July.
