Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and several of his ministers are due to attend a meeting with the Czech government in Prague on Monday morning. For some Israeli nationals living in Czechia, this is an opportunity to show their opposition to the current policies and authoritarian excesses that have already driven hundreds of thousands people onto the streets of Tel Aviv in recent months to demonstrate against a reform of the judicial system that is shaking the foundations of the State of Israel.

The Czech government plans to host the Israeli cabinet members at its headquarters, the Straka Academy, and at the Lichtenstein Palace in Prague. This is the fifth Czech-Israeli intergovernmental meeting and the first since 2016 in Jerusalem.
