The Embassy of Ukraine in Israel reports the increasing number of anti-Ukrainian demonstrations, orchestrated by Russia, in various cities across the country.
That’s according to a series of tweets the Embassy posted on July 17.
“Russian aggression against Ukraine is also spreading to Israel. Recently, alongside a notable propaganda attack on social media, we have 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,” diplomats reported.
Commenting on these events, Ukrainian Ambassador Yevgen Kornichuk said: “We are not shocked or surprised to see Russian funding directed at misleading the public.”
“Despite the engineered demonstrations, the Israeli public, for the most part, supports Ukraine and opposes the brutal Russian attacks,” the envoy wrote.
