Diaspora Affairs Minister Amichai Chikli holds a special conference in the Knesset on the state of Jewish communities in Ukraine to mark the war’s one-year anniversary in late February.
Ukraine’s Ambassador to Israel Yevgen Korniychuk stresses his country’s need for air defense systems, which Israel has refused to provide so far.
At the same time, Korniychuk strikes a positive note, saying that “from the very first days, we experienced enormous support of the Israeli people, Israeli companies, Israeli NGOs, everyone.”
The conference is attended by Mks, Ukrainian rabbis, Israeli humanitarian NGOs, and diplomats. Israel’s Ambassador to Ukraine Michael Brodsky joins by Zoom from Kyiv.
Leading Ukrainian Rabbi Moshe Azman of Kyiv discusses his efforts to create a new town in Israel for Ukrainian immigrants, and recounts his efforts to help thousands of Jewish and non-Jewish Ukrainians escape the country.
Help us report truthfully on social media
As a multimedia journalist, my job is to take the quality, fact-based journalism produced by The Times of Israel newsroom and make it accessible across every platform — from Instagram posts to podcasts to short-form videos.
This is how many, especially young people, consume news these days. But misinformation is rampant on social media. Our team at ToI produces accurate, responsible short-form reporting on Israel and the Jewish world.
If you believe in the importance of factual social media journalism, please consider joining our reader support group, The Times of Israel Community. Your financial support is essential to sustain responsible multimedia reporting.
