Zelensky urges Jews not to remain silent on Ukraine, after strike hits Holocaust memorial
KYIV, Ukraine — Ukraine’s President Volodymyr Zelensky urges the world’s Jews to speak out after a Russian missile strike on a Kyiv television tower built on the site of a Holocaust massacre.
“I am now addressing all the Jews of the world. Don’t you see what is happening? That is why it is very important that millions of Jews around the world not remain silent right now,” he says.
“Nazism is born in silence. So shout about killings of civilians. Shout about the murders of Ukrainians.”
