Netanyahu faces protests during UK visit and meetings with global leaders.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu faced protests during his visit to the UK, highlighting the domestic turmoil in Israel. However, the UK-Israel bilateral relationship remains strong, according to a joint document signed by the foreign ministers of both countries. The UK expressed mild criticism of Netanyahu's proposed legal reforms, stressing the importance of upholding democratic values. Meanwhile, tens of thousands of Israelis have been protesting on the streets for the past two months, causing concern among supporters of the Jewish state abroad. The US administration is also showing signs of losing patience with Israel, with President Joe Biden yet to invite Netanyahu to the White House.
