Israeli Prime Minister Yair Lapid will not attend next week's U.N. climate conference in Egypt, his office said, a cancellation that followed exit polls predicting that his predecessor, Benjamin Netanyahu, had won a national election.
President Isaac Herzog will represent Israel at the Nov. 6-18 conference, Lapid's office said.
