The Israeli public mostly supports Ukraine and opposes Russian aggression, despite the increasing number of cases of Russia’s financing of anti-Ukrainian demonstrations in Israel.

“Russian aggression against Ukraine also extends to Israel. Recently, along with a noticeable propaganda attack on social networks, we witnessed anti-Ukrainian demonstrations funded by the Russian government. These demonstrations took place in Haifa, Netanya and in front of the Ukrainian embassy in Israel.”
“We are not shocked or surprised that Russian funding is aimed at misleading the public. Despite the planned demonstrations, the Israeli public, for the most part, supports Ukraine and resists Russiaʼs brutal attacks,” Ukrainian Ambassador Yevhen Korniychuk said.
The ambassador of Ukraine notes that these efforts of Russians do not bring the expected effect.
On July 3, Israel’s High Court of Justice annulled the order of the Minister of Internal Affairs, Ayelet Shaked, who required citizens of Ukraine to obtain visas for entering Israel.
