In a first, Israeli occupation Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu canceled his planned appearance for Monday night in "Tel Aviv" at the annual meeting of the Jewish Federations of North America, Israeli media reported.

The media highlighted that it will be the first time in his many years as Prime Minister that Netanyahu will not attend the conference, which is the largest meeting of North American Jewish leaders each year.

Israeli prime ministers are always invited to deliver the opening address of the General Assembly of the Jewish Federations of North America.

According to Haaretz, leaders of the anti-judicial reform demonstrations in "Israel" had planned huge disruptions before and during Netanyahu's presence and declared their intention to block the roads surrounding the conference's location to prevent the Israeli Prime Minister's entry. They also planned to set up protesters in the auditorium where Netanyahu was scheduled to speak.

Participating delegates were told to arrive early at the fairgrounds to avoid the blockages ahead of Netanyahu's planned arrival, the news website noted.
