A Haifa city council member has filed a request to change the name of Haparsim Street where the Russian Consulate is located to “Zelensky Street.”
“The president did not abandon his people in this difficult moment when he could have saved himself and his family. Instead, he has led the heroic resistance of the Ukrainian people,” writes Kirill Karetnik in a letter requesting the change.
Haifa is the sister city of Odesa.
