The Jerusalem Post reports: “Israel must stand with Ukraine without hesitation as the two countries face similar, existential threats, Ukrainian Ambassador to Israel Yevhen Korniychuk said in an interview with Walla, marking the fourth anniversary of Russia’s invasion of Ukraine.

‘Russia is to Ukraine what Hamas is to Israel, an aggressive force seeking to undermine the very existence of a sovereign state, deliberately targeting civilians, and waging a limitless war against a free society,’ Korniychuk said, noting that he saw a direct comparison between Russian aggression and Hamas, particularly after October 7.

He added that it is precisely because ‘Israel has experienced existential terror and threats to its right to exist, there is no country better positioned to understand the reality Ukraine faces,’ which is why Israel ‘should stand without hesitation alongside Ukraine, on the right side of history.’…”
