Prince William is deeply affected by the events in Gaza and Israel: He wants to draw attention to the suffering of the people.
Prince William (41) is apparently planning appointments at which he wants to draw attention to “the human suffering” of the conflicts in Gaza, Israel and the Middle East. This is what “bbc.com” reports. At appearances scheduled to take place this month, the heir to the British throne will also address his concerns about the rise in anti-Semitism.
The Prince of Wales will reportedly attend a meeting at a synagogue to meet with young people fighting hate and anti-Semitism. William and his wife, Princess Kate (42), were “deeply affected” by the events in the Gaza Strip and Israel, Kensington Palace said in a statement. which the “Daily Mail” also reports on.
The prince’s appointments are intended to send a symbolic signal and draw attention to the suffering of those affected by the violence. Traditionally, members of the British royal family do not comment on political matters.

As “bbc.com” further reports, William also wants to meet with people who provide humanitarian aid in the Middle East and will “likely find out first-hand what pressure the aid workers in Gaza are under.” Exchange between religions and the fight against religious intolerance are a particular concern of William’s father, King Charles III. (75), it continues. The monarch has not made any public appearances since being diagnosed with cancer earlier this month. Prince William is currently expected to take on such symbolic and sensitive appointments.
Prince William himself withdrew for a short time in mid-January after his wife Kate had abdominal surgery. The heir to the throne has been carrying out official duties again since the beginning of February. Princess Kate will probably only return to the public in a few weeks.
