MK Yuli Edelstein, the chairman of the Knesset Foreign Affairs and Defense Committee, says that his “heart breaks” over the death of the son of Ukrainian Rabbi Moshe Azman, who fell battling the Russians.
“Like Israel, Ukraine is also in an existential war and like Israel the Ukrainian people have lost their precious sons in a terrible war that was imposed on them,” Edelstein says.
“I pray for times of peace and the return of all our children to safe and prosperous countries.”
