The Foreign Ministry says nearly 11,000 Israelis have fled Ukraine in the past four weeks.
Some 1,500 still remain in the country amid Russia’s invasion. According to the ministry, most of them are not interested in leaving currently or are not allowed to due to conscription laws.
All Ukrainian men aged 18-60 are expected to stay in the country to serve as a potential fighting force.
