The Foreign Ministry says it believes there are still around 2,000 Israelis still in Ukraine amid Russia’s invasion of the country.
According to the ministry, some 10,200 Israelis have left Ukraine in the past three weeks, including 5,700 since the war began.
The ministry says that at a meeting today, Foreign Minister Yair Lapid ordered Israel to continue providing aid as needed, including by sending six large generators to help power the hospital in Ukraine’s western city of Lviv.
