The U.K's Prince Charles met with Israel's President Reuven Rivlin on Thursday ahead of the largest-ever Holocaust commemoration in Jerusalem.

Prince Charles is the latest dignitary to arrive in Israel for the event, taking place on the 75th anniversary of the liberation of the Auschwitz death camp and International Holocaust Memorial day on Sunday.

More than 40 world leaders and dignitaries are attending the event at Jerusalem's Yad Vashem Holocaust memorial which will commemorate those killed in the Holocaust, as well as highlighting the recent spikes in antisemitism worldwide.

Also expected to attend are French President Emmanuel Macron, Russian President Vladimir Putin, U.S. Vice President Mike Pence, and the presidents of Germany, Italy and Austria.
