Chief rabbi of Ukraine @RabbiUkraine writes on his Facebook page:

"The first photo shows my grandchildren hiding from Russian terrorists' missiles in Kyiv region in the first days of the terrible invasion of Ukraine.

Later, together with thousands of people, we evacuated them to Israel and Europe.

In the second photo, the same people are hiding from Hamas terrorists' missiles.

Two different parts of the world, but such a common pain and struggle... My heart breaks to see these faces, but I believe that the light of truth and faith will help us to go through these challenges

I pray to the Almighty to bring down his anger and fury on all those involved in the terror of civilians!"

The guy is a rabbi, almost any temple in the world would have sheltered him and offered him work and sponsorship

Doubt.

Israel has a high rate of dual citizenship, so he was likely already a citizen in Israel.

Cool and it still is a contested land with attacks happening legit weekly from all sides. Saying you thought it was safe is just idiotic.
