President Isaac Herzog laments the loss of an Israeli citizen in Ukraine during a visit to the Golan Heights.

“On behalf of myself and all of you, I want to send our condolences to the family in Ukraine and Israel of the late Roman Brodsky, the Israeli citizen who was killed last night in the area of hostilities near Kyiv,” Herzog says.

“This is a terrible tragedy: the personal tragedy of Roman and his family and the tragedy of the Jewish community and the Ukrainian people,” he adds. “We are profoundly concerned for them. Together with the whole family of nations, I hope this war ends quickly.”
