Israel is one of the Iran targets in retaliation, so he probably won't travel.

@wannable-I have to agree that the FO might take the view that the trip should be postponed at this point in time.

I'm almost sure, Boris Johnson is 100% with the USA on the Iran issue.

If Charles goes to Israel, he is a target for the Iranians

The PoW visits his paternal grandmother's grave in Israel today.

Prince Charles visits grandmother's tomb on Jerusalem visit - BBC News

QuoteThe Prince of Wales has visited the tomb of his "inspirational" paternal grandmother, Princess Alice, during his first trip to Jerusalem.

She was honoured by Jewish people for humanitarian efforts in Nazi-occupied Athens during World War Two.

She died in 1969, aged 84, and was buried near her aunt at the Church of Mary Magdalene in Jerusalem.

Prince Charles said he had "long drawn inspiration from the selfless actions of my dear grandmother".

The prince laid flowers on her final resting place as his two-day visit to the Middle East came to an end.

On her tomb was a Greek royal standard which the prince had made in London after the original had become worn.

Bravo, Charles for speaking out on behalf of the Palestinian people. I applaud him for this. The Palestinians have suffered for decades and will continue to do so, unless the US steps in, and some hope there I don't think! 

Btw, I am not anti-Semitic, so don't let's go there.
