PM Netanyahu to attend 70th Independence Day torch lighting ceremony
None
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu will attend the 70th Independence Day torch lighting ceremony, but it remained unclear whether he will speak there.
Netanyahu's decision to attend came on the backdrop of a public spat between Culture Minister Miri Regev and Knesset Speaker Yuli Edelstein, with the former wishing for the premier to attend along with President Reuven Rivlin and the latter threatening to boycott the ceremony if that happens.
