      <video:title><![CDATA[Why Trump is going to the Middle East and what does Ukraine have to do with it: political scientist&#8217;s analysis]]></video:title>
      <video:description><![CDATA[“President Trump, I think, is desperately looking for something to present to his public, to his voters as a major achievement of his first 100 days. Many promises were made: end the war in Ukraine in 24 hours, achieve the release of all hostages, expand the Abraham Accords, punish Iran, solve the Palestinian issue, and so on. As is often the case, all these rosy promises collided with harsh reality. It seems to me that Trump, rather, not so much him, but his team, his voters, are gradually realizing that solving all this will be much more difficult than it seemed before. In the Middle East, apparently, Trump feels that it’s easier to make progress than on the Russian-Ukrainian war front,” — said the speaker.
U.S. President Donald Trump is preparing for an important trip to the Middle East, which will cover several key destinations: Israel, Saudi Arabia, and other Arab countries. This trip holds not only political but also economic significance for the U.S. and the region’s countries. But what lies behind this visit, and what role does Ukraine play in it?

As political scientist Mikhail Pellivert noted on May 5, 2025, Trump is trying to demonstrate his achievements to his voters for the first 100 days of his presidency.
Trump’s Visit: Political Goals and Expectations
The question that is repeatedly discussed in international media: why is Trump going to the Middle East right now? According to Mikhail Pellivert, one of the main motivations for this trip is the president's desire to demonstrate the success of his leadership after promises to end the war in Ukraine and resolve several other global problems.
“President Trump, I think, is desperately looking for something to present to his public, to his voters as a major achievement of his first 100 days”.
It is noted that the realization of promises, such as ending the war in Ukraine or expanding the Abraham Accords, has faced reality, where many promises remain unfulfilled.

      <video:description><![CDATA[MAGAV soldier from Ukraine, Katya, reunited with her family live on air for Israel's Independence Day - 77. Katya had not seen her mother and brother for two years, and this unexpected meeting became a real miracle.



Surprise for Israel's Independence Day: Soldier Katya from MAGAV met her family live on air
For the 77th anniversary of Israel's Independence, Channel 14 ITV prepared a touching gift for soldier Katya, who serves in the MAGAV border police unit. This moment, which amazed many, became part of the festive broadcast and symbolized how important personal connections are, despite distances and difficulties. Katya had not seen her family for two years, who stayed in Ukraine, in the city of Odessa, which is under bombardment.
Touching Reunion with Family
While serving in Israel, Katya shared on air that her mother and brother stayed in Odessa, where the situation with the shelling remains extremely difficult. Katya's mother had never been to Israel, and Katya couldn’t visit her family due to the war. The emotions Katya felt when her family appeared in the studio became the highlight of the broadcast.
Katya's quote:
"I couldn’t hug them for two years. We kept in touch only by phone, and of course, it’s very hard to be away from my family, especially when they are going through such difficult times."
This moment became a symbol not only of human closeness but also of how important support is in such difficult times, especially for those who have gone through the pain of war and separation from loved ones.
Israel's Independence and the Strength of Spirit
For Katya, Israel's Independence Day took on a special meaning. On this day, when Israel celebrated its independence, she reunited with her family. This moment reminded many that independence is not only national freedom, but also personal victories, moments of joy, and reunions with loved ones, despite all the trials.

The event moved the viewers not only because it was a great celebration for Is]]></video:description>

      <video:title><![CDATA[Putin&#8217;s Russia is &#8220;Big Hamas&#8221;: The story of captivity and torture that Viktoria Roshchina, a Ukrainian journalist, and thousands of Ukrainians imprisoned by Russia did NOT survive &#8211; Viktoriia Project investigation &#8211; video]]></video:title>
      <video:description><![CDATA[The investigation by Viktoriia Project was joined by 13 international media: Forbidden Stories, The Guardian, Washington Post, Le Monde, Die Zeit, Der Spiegel, ZDF, Paper Trail Media, IStories, France 24, "Ukrainian Pravda", DerStandart.

Investigation Results were published on April 29, 2025.

The international investigation not only restores the voice of journalist Viktoriia Roshchyna – it sheds light on one of the darkest pages of the Russian-Ukrainian war, demanding justice and accountability for the crimes committed by the Putin regime against civilians.

Journalists from the international project Viktoriia Project discovered that the body of the journalist Viktoriia Roshchyna, who died in Russian captivity, had numerous signs of torture and signs of dissection. It also lacked certain internal organs.

In Russian captivity, Roshchyna was brutally tortured. She had knife wounds on her body, and her weight was less than 30 kg.

The death of Viktoriia Roshchyna became known in October of the previous year. In a letter from the Russian Ministry of Defense to the journalist's father, they stated that his daughter died on September 19, 2024. They also informed that her body would be returned "to the Ukrainian side as part of a prisoner exchange."

During the exchange on February 14, 2025, Ukraine returned the bodies of 757 fallen defenders. Among them was Viktoriia Roshchyna, listed under number 757 with the notes "unidentified male" and "SPAS."

Upon initial examination, pathologists determined that it was the body of a woman.

An expert examination conducted by the Office of the General Prosecutor revealed a 99% match with the DNA of journalist Viktoriia Roshchyna.
Viktoriia Roshchyna's Body: Numerous Signs of Torture
After Viktoriia Roshchyna was returned to Ukraine, experts discovered numerous signs of torture on her body. Pathologists and investigative bodies established that her body had abrasions, bruising, broken ribs, and possible signs of ]]></video:description>

      <video:title><![CDATA[&#8220;Jews do not fight for Nazi regimes&#8221; &#8211; Zelensky]]></video:title>
      <video:description><![CDATA[In a recent interview with American journalist Ben Shapiro, the president of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelensky rejected the "accusations" made by Russian president Putin regarding Ukraine, claiming that the country is supposedly governed by a "Nazi regime". The accusations of "Nazism" became the main justification for Russia's invasion of Ukraine in 2022, and throughout the war, the Kremlin has been actively spreading this rhetoric.
Putin's accusations: Political manipulation and absurd claims
Russian president Putin continues to call Ukraine a Nazi state, accusing Ukrainian leaders of fascism. However, Zelensky rejects these accusations, emphasizing the absurdity of such claims. In the interview, Zelensky noted that he has Jewish roots. He expressed his bewilderment at how anyone could accuse him of Nazism when he himself is part of a Jewish family.

Zelensky emphasized that these accusations are not only unfounded but also cynical because the Russian army uses methods that are more similar to those of the Nazi regime than the actions of democratic states. He pointed out that the actions of the Russian army on Ukrainian territory include killings of civilians, rapes, and mass deportation — crimes that are characteristic of totalitarian regimes of the past.
"It's ridiculous to hear this from Putin. He has come very close to what the Nazi regime did nearly a hundred years ago. The crimes committed by the Russian army include rape and killings of civilians. They did everything," — said Zelensky in the interview.
The rabbi, his son, and the absurdity of the accusations
President Zelensky also used the example of the absurdity of propaganda accusations by referring to the story of the Chief Rabbi of Ukraine **Moshe Asman** and his son. According to Zelensky, his son volunteered to go to the front and died, further disproving the allegations of a supposedly "Nazi" regime in Ukraine.

Spring in Israel promises to be especially fun and touching — the Ukrainian comedy "Pesyky" is coming to the big screen, already causing a stir in Ukraine. The screenings in Israel will take place in Haifa, Tel Aviv, and Ashdod.

Plot: Romance, Comedy, and a Curse
The heroine of the film, Yana, is a self-centered career woman who suddenly gains a supernatural ability: every man she sleeps with turns into a dog. Some become poodles, others bulldogs, and some, pekingese. All the dogs adore Yana and never leave her, but how does one live with such a "dog army"?

      <video:title><![CDATA[Israel Stands Still: Remembrance Day for Fallen Soldiers and Victims of Terror — a History of Pain and National Unity]]></video:title>
      <video:description><![CDATA[On Tuesday, April 29, 2025, in the evening, silence falls across Israel as the Memorial Day for Fallen Soldiers and Victims of Terrorist Attacks begins. This day is not just a date on the calendar. It is a moment of national unity, mourning, and gratitude to those who gave their lives for the freedom and security of the State of Israel.

The Ministry of Defense has published updated data (as of 25.04.25) on the number of security personnel and soldiers who died in wars and military campaigns of Israel.

Since 1860, when the count began, and until today, 25,417 people have died in wars.

Since the previous Memorial Day, the list has grown by 316 names of the fallen and another 61 names of IDF disabled veterans who died from their injuries.

Today, Israel is home to 8,674 parents who lost children, 5,391 widows and widowers, 10,302 orphans, and 34,250 brothers and sisters — totaling 58,617 close relatives of the fallen.

The video shows the National Memorial Hall on Mount Herzl in Jerusalem, where the names of those who fell in Israel’s wars are preserved and memorial ceremonies are held.



The complex is dedicated to perpetuating the memory of all soldiers and security personnel who fell defending the land of Israel, starting from 1860.

Each soldier’s name is engraved on a separate brick with an embedded electronic candle.

On the day of a soldier’s death, the candle lights up, signaling to visitors that the fighter is not forgotten.

Israel reverently honors the memory of each of its defenders, with the bricks arranged chronologically.

Together, they form a monolithic wall that constitutes the complex itself.

Similarly, each individual forms, together with others, a monolith — a nation, its life, its order, and its future, what after the French Revolution began to be called a nation.

At the entrance to the complex, a video sequence plays, showing soldiers marching to their final battle, never to return.

      <video:description><![CDATA[The Chief Rabbi of Ukraine Moshe Asman appealed to Donald Trump with a powerful song-address, urging him to help Ukraine achieve a just and lasting peace.

This appeal was made on April 27, 2025, in the form of a video that he published on social media. The song, written in English, reflects his deep plea to the U.S. President to "stop the violence and support peacekeeping initiatives for Ukraine."
"My appeal to the President of the United States, Donald Trump, is to help Ukraine achieve a just and strong peace," wrote Asman.
The Importance of Moshe Asman's Appeal
Moshe Asman actively uses his platform to deliver important messages to world leaders like Donald Trump, asking them to support Ukraine. In the song, he urges Trump to fight for light and justice, emphasizing that the world is watching his actions closely.
"You are the one who the whole world is watching, every step you take, everything you do. Do not let the line between good and evil be blurred. Light will always rise, darkness will not prevail. Donald Trump, it's time to fight for the light," — words from Moshe Asman's song.
This appeal is accompanied by a video showing the consequences of Russian missile attacks, particularly the shelling of Kyiv on April 24, 2025, and other destructive footage caused by Russian aggression. Moshe Asman has repeatedly emphasized the importance of international support for Ukraine in its struggle for peace and justice.
The Video and Its Impact
The video accompanying the song shows the aftermath of the shelling, including the destruction of an apartment building in Kyiv, which was hit by a Russian missile. The video also depicts other tragic moments, such as the attack on Sumy during Palm Sunday, where 35 people were killed. Moshe Asman publicly appeals to Trump to become the leader who will help end the war.

The band Chornitsa actively interacts with the Ukrainian community in Israel. Nika noted that her songs in Ukrainian resonate with Israelis of Ukrainian descent, helping to maintain a connection with their native culture and facilitating integration. Music has become a link between Israeli and Ukrainian cultures.

Ihor added that the Ukrainian community in Israel has become an important part of their lives, and they often hold concerts and charity events to help refugees. The band also collaborates with organizations supporting Ukrainians in Israel, participating in fundraising for war victims.

      <video:description><![CDATA[Ben Shapiro — a well-known American conservative commentator, blogger, and lawyer, who became one of the most prominent figures of the right-wing in the political and social spheres of the United States. He is the founder and host of the platform Daily Wire and actively comments on a wide range of issues, including politics, religion, and social matters.

Shapiro has established himself as a firm supporter of Israel and controversial social issues such as opposition to the LGBT movement, protection of Christian rights, and support for traditional values. His views attract both supporters and critics, making his figure influential in both American and international contexts.

Recently, Bent Shapiro became a central figure in a visit to Ukraine, where he met with President Volodymyr Zelensky and Rabbi Moshe Asman, discussing important issues regarding support for Ukraine in the context of the war and strengthening the ties between the United States and Ukraine.



Shapiro and Zelensky: An Important Meeting
April 24, 2025 in Kyiv, an important meeting took place between Volodymyr Zelensky and Ben Shapiro.

During this interview, the President of Ukraine made several important statements. Zelensky emphasized that the U.S. plays a key role in supporting Ukraine in its fight against Russian aggression and underlined that Ukraine views the U.S. as a strong strategic partner.

Quote from Zelensky:
"We consider the U.S. to be a strong strategic partner with influence, and we truly want to achieve peace through strength. It would be beneficial for Russia if that strength were directed against them."
This comment from Zelensky clearly reflects his position toward Russia and the U.S. The President of Ukraine states that only through active opposition to the Russian aggressor can peace return to Ukraine. Zelensky also noted that Ukraine supports strategic cooperation with the U.S. and that American aid is a critical factor in defending Ukraine's sovereignty.

      <video:title><![CDATA[Ukraine lost up to 50% of its child population due to war &#8211; analysis]]></video:title>
      <video:description><![CDATA[Ukraine has lost nearly half of its child population due to occupation and deportation. How Putin tried to devastate the country and what can be done to return the children?

Why Ukraine lost half of its child population

As a result of Russian aggression over 11 years, Ukraine has lost almost half of its child population. This is not only the result of hostilities but also the mass deportation of Ukrainian children from occupied territories. Mykola Kuleba, the founder of the Save Ukraine organization and former commissioner for children's rights to the president of Ukraine, shares alarming statistics confirming these losses.
Quote from Mykola Kuleba:
«Over 11 years, Ukraine has lost half of its child population. Of them, 20% remained first in Donbas and Crimea, and then new territories — nearly 1.6 million children that we lost due to occupation.

These 20% of the child population are specifically there. Another 30% are in the world, almost 30%, somewhere around 25%, a little more than 25%.»

Therefore, almost half of the child population is gone.»
Crimea as a center for "reprogramming" children
One of the key elements of this deportation is the use of Crimea as a center for the "reprogramming" of Ukrainian children. It is here, in camps and special facilities, where children are subjected to forced assimilation into Russian culture, where they are made to adopt Russian identity, forget their Ukrainian origins, and learn Russian. This is a form of cultural genocide, aimed not only at physical but also spiritual destruction of Ukrainian identity.
Impact on Ukraine’s future
The absence of almost half of the child population, displaced to occupied territories and Russia, has long-term consequences for Ukraine. According to human rights defenders, the majority of children undergo harsh "reprogramming," forcing them to forget their culture and roots. Kuleba calls these processes mass destruction of Ukrainian identity, which, in essence, is cultural genocid]]></video:description>

The main character, Yana, is a self-centered career woman who suddenly gains a supernatural power: every man she sleeps with turns into a dog. One becomes a poodle, another a bulldog, and another a lapdog. All the dogs adore Yana and never leave her — but how do you live with such a "doggy army"?

The film combines light humor, elements of fantasy, and a witty look at gender relationships in modern society.

      <video:title><![CDATA[&#8220;Jews who support Russia, who are you?!&#8221; &#8211; video: Grigory Tamar &#8211; &#8220;The delegation to Moscow for May 9 is a disgrace!&#8221; &#8211; a frank conversation&#8221;]]></video:title>
      <video:description><![CDATA[Author: Grigory Tamar — reserve captain of the Israel Defense Forces, biologist, journalist, military historian, former employee of an Israeli intelligence service, organizer of cultural projects and festivals such as "Knights of Jerusalem." In his video, published on April 14, 2025, he raises important issues related to the ignoring of Putin's aggression by the Israeli government and practically all major politicians and parties.

The video, published on YouTube, is titled “Jews supporting Russia, who are you?! Delegation to May 9 in Moscow — shame!” Grigory Tamar expresses concern about the fact that many Russian-speaking Israelis actively support Russia's aggression in Ukraine.



Brief Overview of the Video Content
1. Support for Russian Aggression Among Russian-Speaking Israelis
Grigory Tamar expresses concern about how actively Russian-speaking Israelis support Russian aggression. He emphasizes that this support is created through manipulation of public opinion, and the real opinion of Russian-speaking Israelis is left behind.
2. The Issue of Israel's Participation in the May 9 Parade in Moscow
Tamar passionately expresses his opposition to Israel sending an official delegation to the May 9 celebrations in Moscow. For him, this is a real shame. He reminds that Putin, who is aggressing against Ukraine, does not deserve to have Israelis supporting his actions, especially given that Russia is arming Israel's enemies.
3. Ignoring Putin's Aggression by the Israeli Government
Grigory Tamar emphasizes that the Israeli government, as well as practically all major political forces and parties, ignore Putin's aggression in Ukraine. This ignorance is unacceptable to him, especially considering that Israel historically supports the principles of independence and territorial integrity. He expresses dissatisfaction that none of the significant Israeli politicians condemn Russia's war crimes, while the international community actively reacts to them.

      <video:title><![CDATA[Ukraine should more actively engage communities, particularly the Jewish one, in dialogue with the US, &#8211; opinion]]></video:title>
      <video:description><![CDATA[One of the key priorities of Ukraine's foreign policy today is strengthening strategic partnership with the USA.

In this regard, there is a need to search for additional channels of interaction, including through the active engagement of influential communities historically linked to the American administration and society.

This point of view was expressed in an interview with RBK-Ukraine American political scientist and expert Ariel Cohen. He noted that in order to develop relations with the USA, Ukraine should more actively utilize communities with stable and effective ties to American society.
The Role of the Jewish Community in Strengthening Ties with the USA
The Jewish community in the USA, as well as in Israel, plays an important role in American politics. As Cohen points out, utilizing these connections can help Ukraine engage more effectively with the USA. Ariel Cohen, a doctor of diplomacy and law, senior expert at the Eurasian Center of the Atlantic Council, believes that the Jewish community, with its strong communication channels, can become an important bridge between Ukraine and America.
Visit of the Chief Rabbi of Ukraine Moshe Reuven Asman
Recently, the Chief Rabbi of Ukraine Moshe Reuven Asman visited the United States, where he took part in a series of meetings with senior US officials. The visit included official ceremonies and meetings with key political leaders, highlighting the importance of interaction between the Jewish community and the American political elite.
Why the Active Role of the Jewish Community is Important?
Jewish communities in the USA traditionally have significant influence on the political agenda. In particular, leaders such as Ivanka Trump and Jared Kushner not only actively support Israel but also directly participate in political processes. These connections create additional opportunities to strengthen Ukraine's influence in the USA.

      <video:description><![CDATA[On March 28, 2025, in Ukraine, in the heart of Anatevka near Kyiv, the first stone for the future business school was laid, marking an important step in the development of education in the country.

This event attracted the attention of not only Ukrainian but also international public figures, including The Chief Rabbi of Ukraine, Moshe Asman.

The rabbi personally participated in the ceremony together with the renowned entrepreneur and philanthropist Brock Pierce, who has long supported Ukraine and its recovery.

The project of the new business school in Anatevka became a significant contribution to the future of Ukrainian business and education. It is aimed at creating opportunities for young talents and strengthening the educational system in the post-war recovery period.
Partnership with Brock Pierce
Moshe Asman does not hide his gratitude for the support that Brock Pierce has provided to Ukraine, despite the difficulties caused by Russian aggression. This partnership has become a true example of international solidarity and faith in the Ukrainian people. As Asman himself noted:
"This project will not only provide a powerful impetus for business development but will also be an important step in the recovery of Ukraine. Together with Brock, we believe in the bright future of the country."
Brock Pierce, in turn, emphasized the importance of his personal involvement in the project, which, according to him, symbolizes faith in Ukraine as a strong and independent state. He also noted:
"Seeing the consequences of Russian aggression, I became a witness to the incredible spirit and strength demonstrated by the Ukrainian people. This project is a contribution to the recovery of Ukraine, its prosperity, and future."
A New Step for Anatevka
Anatevka, where the ceremony took place, has long been known for its cultural and religious symbols. The city has become one of the centers of support and development for the Jewish community in Ukraine. As was noted earlie]]></video:description>

      <video:description><![CDATA[Russia Attacks Ukraine: Challenges to Peacekeeping Efforts
NAnews&#x203c;&#xfe0f;: On the evening and night of March 29, Russia attacked Ukraine, launching over 170 drones, of which more than 100 were Iranian "Shaheds". This massive strike affected key regions of Ukraine, such as Dnipropetrovsk, Kyiv, Sumy, Kharkiv, and Khmelnytsky regions.

Currently, in Dnipro, there are reports of 4 fatalities and 21 injuries, including a pregnant woman.

This massive attack targeted key regions of Ukraine, such as Dnipropetrovsk, Kyiv, Sumy, Kharkiv, and Khmelnytsky regions.

In Dnipro, the famous hotel and restaurant complex Bartolomeo Best River Resort was affected, including its signature ship San Gabriel, which was completely burned down.

This attack hit close to the iconic Jewish complex "Menora", which is located just 2.5 km from this object. Menora is the largest cultural and religious center for the Jewish community of Ukraine, including a memorial center, museum, and synagogue, and is an important symbol for the Jewish people.
The Strike on Dnipro – Putin's Response to US Ceasefire Proposals
This was stated by Ukraine's Minister of Foreign Affairs, Andriy Sybiha.
"They are again attacking residential areas. This is Putin's response to US proposals for a ceasefire: more war crimes and attacks on the civilian population," Sybiha said.
Russian Propaganda Lies Again: No "NATO Officers" in Dnipro – Civilian Casualties
The Center for Counteracting Disinformation disproved the fake news about a supposed strike on the "residence of foreign mercenaries" in Dnipro. Propagandists claimed that "ten NATO officers" died in the Bartolomeo restaurant.

In Dnipro, March 30 has been declared a day of mourning for those killed as a result of the Russian strike, the city's mayor, Boris Filatov, announced.

For the Jewish community in both Ukraine and Israel, events in Ukraine are not just news, but part of their historical and spiritual destiny. Many Jews in Israel have ]]></video:description>

      <video:description><![CDATA[“He will die soon — and that’s a fact”: Zelensky’s powerful statement
In an interview with Eurovision News on March 26, 2025, President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelensky made a resonant — and perhaps historic — statement:
“He will die soon — and that’s a fact. And everything will be over. He may end this issue before his safe and failed historical existence ends.”
Thus, Zelensky made it clear: the end of putin’s regime is not a hypothesis, but a matter of time. He added:
“I am younger than putin. Bet on me — I have a better future.”
putin’s main fear is not NATO
According to Zelensky, the dictator fears not external threats, but his own society, its destabilization, and the loss of power. He emphasized:

 	The outside world cannot destabilize Russia — putin will do it himself.
 	The biggest fear is isolation and loss of control.
 	putin’s age is becoming a political factor.

“He is afraid above all of his own society. This will not come from the outside — he will cause his own downfall.”
Nighttime “energy truce”: shift or coincidence?
Zelensky reported that on the night of March 26, Russia did not attack Ukrainian energy facilities, and Ukraine did not respond in kind. However, the enemy launched more than 100 drones at other civilian targets.

The president emphasized that it remains unclear whether this was the result of informal agreements:
“You simply can’t trust them (Russia). We needed agreements from the start not to strike civilian infrastructure — that’s easier to monitor.”
Who will monitor the truce?
In Zelensky’s view, the key question is: who will take responsibility for monitoring the ceasefire? Ukraine is counting on the United States:

      <video:title><![CDATA[Official Rabbi of the Armed Forces of Ukraine Showed Zelensky&#8217;s Personal Place in the Central Synagogue of Kyiv]]></video:title>
      <video:description><![CDATA[The first official rabbi of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, David Milman, shared in an interview a unique detail about the Brodsky Synagogue in Kyiv — the personal seat of President Volodymyr Zelensky.

This seat is located in the front row, on the right near the aisle, and is reserved for the head of state. However, if the president is not present, anyone may sit there.
"When the owner is absent, anyone can sit here," the rabbi explained.
How the synagogue in Kyiv functions during the war
Despite shelling and war, the Jewish community in Kyiv remains active. Prayer services are held three times a day, with 20 to 30 people attending each time. The synagogue serves not only a religious but also a psychological role for its members.

At the same time, a large portion of the community has fled abroad. Many have relocated to Israel, the USA, and Europe, yet the spiritual connection to Kyiv remains strong.
Rabbi David Milman: who he is and why it matters
David Milman is the first official rabbi of the Armed Forces of Ukraine. His appointment was made possible after reforms in the chaplain service and the adoption of the law on military chaplaincy in 2021. He represents the Jewish faith and offers spiritual support to Jewish soldiers on the frontline.

Before the war, he served in the Kyiv Jewish community. Since the Russian invasion, he has been accompanying soldiers, conducting prayers, participating in humanitarian missions, and supporting families of service members.
His mission is to be with the soldiers where it is difficult, frightening, and where faith is needed most.
What is the Military Chaplaincy Institute in Ukraine
Since January 1, 2022, Ukraine has officially operated a Military Chaplaincy Institute. Chaplains are given the status of military personnel but do not carry weapons. Their mission is spiritual care, moral support, and performing religious rites.

The chaplain corps includes representatives from various faiths: Orthodox, Catholic, Musl]]></video:description>

      <video:title><![CDATA[Video: Israel, Ukraine, Russia and Turkey: Who is playing behind the scenes of Middle East peace? Marianna Belenkaya &#8211; Mohammad Farajalla]]></video:title>
      <video:description><![CDATA[&#x1f4c5; March 24, 2025
&#x1f399; Host — Mariana Belenkaya, journalist at First Radio (Israel), Middle East correspondent
&#x1f3a5; Guest — Dr. Mohammad Farajallah, editor-in-chief of "Ukraine in Arabic", expert in Ukrainian-Arab relations
Israel has once again found itself at the center of the Middle Eastern puzzle.
&#x1f7e1; Key highlights discussed — especially for Israelis
1. Erdogan — an ally or a threat to Israel?
Despite ties with Hamas, Turkey may become a strategic shield for northern Israel. Turkish influence currently restrains chaos in Syria and prevents the opening of new fronts.

2. Israel made a mistake by striking Syria during its moment of weakness
Dr. Farajallah strongly criticizes Israel’s actions under Netanyahu: instead of supporting the transitional phase and pushing out Iran and Russia, Israel looked like a “vulture.”
This could damage Israel’s interests in the future.

3. Why Israel needs Erdogan — even if he's unpopular
Erdogan may serve as a key negotiator between Jerusalem and Damascus.
He could revive the 1974 agreement and establish a new zone of stability on Israel’s northern border.

4. How Ukraine's security is tied to Israel's
The fronts of war in the Middle East are also a Ukrainian front.
Dr. Farajallah explains: Russia’s hybrid warfare methods used in Ukraine were first tested in Syria. Ukraine’s victory would also mean greater security for Israel.

5. The Iranian axis and Hamas — puppets of the same game
Iran uses Hamas, Hezbollah, and other groups solely for its own agenda. Farajallah emphasizes: Iran does not care about Arabs, and it is Israel and Turkey who can form a new balancing alliance.

6. Russia has weakened in Syria, but remains in the Middle East
While losing ground in Syria, Russia maintains influence through Iran. This poses a threat to both Israel and Ukraine and calls for a joint response.

7. Saudi Arabia and diplomacy
Riyadh no longer actively participates — it only provides a platfor]]></video:description>

      <video:title><![CDATA[Video: Ukrainian Jews and War: How Is Their Identity Manifested? | DW Ukrainian]]></video:title>
      <video:description><![CDATA["I am a Jew and a Ukrainian": how the war revealed Jewish identity in Ukraine and beyond.
On March 2, 2025, the German-French TV channel ARTE and the editorial team of DW Ukrainian presented a video interview and report on how, against the backdrop of Russian aggression, Jewish identity is manifesting in Ukraine and in European countries where Ukrainian Jews have emigrated. The project was released under the hashtag #TracksEast and quickly gained views among the Ukrainian and Jewish diaspora.
Main characters — real faces of identity
Illia Shpolyanskyi: a kippah on the front — fear in Berlin
Illia Shpolyanskyi is a commander of one of the units of the Armed Forces of Ukraine. He does not hide his Jewish identity: he wears a kippah even in combat zones. For him, it's an act of personal pride and resistance:
"I’m not just a Ukrainian, I’m a Jewish Ukrainian. My kippah is part of my armor."
However, when visiting his family in Berlin, Shpolyanskyi sometimes removes the kippah, fearing antisemitic attacks. The paradox: in Ukraine, he feels free — in Europe, vulnerable.
Garik Korohodskyi: business, Babyn Yar, and memory
Kyiv-based philanthropist and entrepreneur Garik Korohodskyi is another central figure in the report. Known for his eccentric style and active civic position, behind the flashy appearance lies a story that touches many:

 	His relatives were murdered in Babyn Yar during the Holocaust;
 	In Soviet times, his family faced discrimination as Jews;
 	Today, he actively supports the Ukrainian army, humanitarian projects, and preserves Jewish identity.

"I’m not playing a Jew — I live as one. Being a Jew in Ukraine today means remembering and resisting."
Jews in emigration: between home and identity
The report also features voices of Jews who left Ukraine and now live in Germany and Poland. Their feelings are complex:

 	Pride for Ukraine, its resistance, and democratic values.
 	Longing for home and alienation in their new societies.
 	Fear o]]></video:description>

      <video:description><![CDATA[Russian MFA on March 22, 2025:

(literal translation from Russian)
The great poet, Honored Artist, and People’s Artist of Russia Ilya Reznik congratulated Sergey Viktorovich Lavrov on his 75th birthday — in verse!

To Dear Sergey Viktorovich Lavrov
on the day of his 75th birthday

Sergey Lavrov, a legendary man,
A great Russian Juvenal,
Please accept, on this Planetary Date,
My grateful madrigal.

Amid Europe's cacophony,
Among the bells of languages and tongues,
You turned Aesop’s coded speech
Into the real power of "ClearSpeak"!

Weighty and winged,
Your speech soars on the airwaves,
And your “and propo” — “Idiots!” —
Cuts like a samurai sword.

With you — your loyal comrades,
Those who keep their love for you —
Your page — Maria Zakharova,
And all the blessed MFA crew!

Life is a difficult fiesta —
Now at a pace, now at a gallop —
A summit in Oman, breakfast in Sana,
A speech in Istanbul, lunch in Botswana!

Happy Birthday! Jingle, necklace!
Bring joy year after year!
He is an all-encompassing minister —
Poet, scholar, polyglot!

Noble and kind-hearted,
A hundred times wiser than Socrates,
He won’t be trapped in ambush,
Nor be deceived by enemies!

Vivat to Lavrov! Kurds and Moors,
Ambassadors, sultans, bachelors
Beat drums and tambourines —
Sending global reverence!

Lavrov! He rests not on laurels,
He strives for new frontiers!
Here is my crescendo of joy,
And my coda: Glory to you, friend, sing on!
Lavrov — the President’s support,
Lavrov — our beloved hero!

With admiration and piety,
Sincerely yours, Sergey Viktorovich,
Resident of blockaded Leningrad,
Poet Ilya Reznik

On the night of March 21. Crimea. Miskhor

“We conclude the poetic marathon and series of greetings to Sergey Lavrov with a masterpiece worthy of a crown.”
You might say, “But we love him not for this…” and yet…

As another poet, also a Jew, Alexander Galich, once said:
“Oh, don’t sew liveries, you Jews,
You won’t become chamb]]></video:description>

      <video:title><![CDATA[Video: &#8220;Trump can surprise both Ukraine and Israel&#8221; &#8211; Israeli Ambassador to Ukraine Brodsky]]></video:title>
      <video:description><![CDATA[“I would just like to quote the Ambassador of Ukraine to Israel, who said he is satisfied with the level of security cooperation between our countries. I have nothing to add — if he is satisfied, then of course, I am too.”
Michael Brodsky, the Ambassador of Israel to Ukraine, was the guest of a 24 Channel podcast on March 18, 2025.

In a conversation with host Olga Byelan, he explained in detail why Israel does not provide military aid to Ukraine, while actively supporting Ukrainians with humanitarian assistance. He also addressed Israel’s complex relations with Russia and the United States, as well as the growing threat posed by Iran. Against the backdrop of war with Hamas and tensions in the region, Israel continues to seek a balance between strategic interests and moral obligations.

NAnews – News of Israel presents a detailed overview of the key points from the interview.
Why doesn’t Israel send weapons to Ukraine?
Since the beginning of the full-scale invasion, Israel has clearly stated its position — no military aid. The reasons:

 	“Red lines” — Israel’s national security comes first.
 	Complicated relations with Russia, particularly due to its military presence in Syria.
 	Concerns about increasing Iranian influence in the region.

“From the start, Israel explained to Ukraine: let’s discuss such matters through closed channels,” Brodsky emphasized.
But humanitarian aid is extensive
Despite being at war itself, Israel has provided consistent and extensive support to Ukrainians:



Type of Aid
Details




Field Hospital
Deployed in Western Ukraine


Treatment of Wounded Soldiers
Prosthetics and rehabilitation in Israel


Medical Care for Children
Fully funded by the Israeli government


Medicines and Equipment
Delivered from the very first days of the war


Psychological Support
Thousands of Ukrainian specialists trained



“This is not one-day aid. This is assistance that will continue to serve Ukraine for many ye]]></video:description>

      <video:title><![CDATA[Ukraine&#8217;s representatives at Eurovision 2025 Ziferblat responded with dignity to a provocative question about Israel]]></video:title>
      <video:description><![CDATA["The Eurovision stage is a chance to remind the world that the war in Ukraine is ongoing. Many are tired of hearing about it, but for us it’s a daily fight for survival. We need constant support, understanding, and compassion."
"Are you afraid of Israel?" — Ukrainians shut down the provocation
The Ukrainian music band Ziferblat, representing Ukraine at Eurovision 2025 in the Swiss city of Basel, found itself at the center of a hot social debate. The reason was a provocative question from a Swiss journalist during an interview for 20 Minuten.

The journalist asked:
"Last year in Malmö, the atmosphere was tense because of Israel’s participation. Are you worried it might be the same in Basel?"
The response from the band’s frontman, Danylo Leshchynskyi, was a powerful example of diplomacy and moral strength:
"I say this with great respect to every country, but I am mostly concerned about my own people, who have been living in fear for their lives every day for ten years. Unfortunately, a tense atmosphere has become our norm. It's difficult for me to focus on other events."
This answer quickly went viral on social media and in the press, receiving strong support — especially from Israelis of Ukrainian origin, for whom Ukraine’s pain is deeply personal.
Context: Israel’s participation in Eurovision — between music and politics
2024: Eden Golan and the major controversy
In 2024, Israel was represented at Eurovision by Eden Golan, a singer of Ukrainian descent (her mother is Ukrainian, her father is a Latvian Jew).

Golan lived in Moscow for 13 years, where her family had moved due to her father’s job. She once performed in occupied Crimea, which led to her being added to Ukraine’s "Myrotvorets" database.

In 2022, she left Russia. Her family had been considering a move to Israel for a long time, but after the full-scale invasion of Ukraine, they made the final decision to relocate.

Her path to the contest was difficult:

      <video:title><![CDATA[Russian media and the Russian Foreign Ministry are again trying to teach Israel how to &#8220;correctly&#8221; remember the Holocaust &#8211; Gideon Saar responded with dignity]]></video:title>
      <video:description><![CDATA[Added "spice" and tried his best a certain pro-Kremlin propagandist Mardan in his article from March 4, 2025, titled "The Israeli Ambassador to Moscow Gideon Saar promised to check information about the glorification of Stepan Bandera in Ukraine."

What happened
Israeli Foreign Minister Gideon Saar held a weekly briefing for foreign journalists at the Israeli Foreign Ministry headquarters in Jerusalem on March 4, 2025.

He announced that in May, he would host a conference in Jerusalem for the International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance (IHRA), aimed at com]]></video:description>

      <video:description><![CDATA["Israel confirmed that it will vote in favor of this resolution – a basic one that concerns Ukraine’s right to defend itself and maintain its territorial integrity; there is nothing extraneous in it."

"We discuss every resolution, every detail, and I was simply not informed about the changes. As a result, I looked like a whipping boy..."

"People who know what they’re talking about understand that we coordinate every vote with the Israeli Ministry of Foreign Affairs."

"When the Israeli MFA has issues with resolutions that are problematic for Israel, we either abstain or do not vote. And I can provide dozens of such examples. In my four years as ambassador, I cannot recall a single critical resolution for Israel that we did not support or abstain from when it was required for Israel."
The Ambassador of Ukraine to Israel, Yevhen Korniychuk gave an interview to "The Best Radio of Israel" on February 26, 2025, in which he explained that Kyiv is disappointed that Israel voted against the Ukrainian resolution brought to the UN General Assembly session condemning Russian aggression, and that this was preceded by …………

      <video:title><![CDATA[&#8220;I am not signing something that will be paid by 10 generations of Ukrainians&#8221; &#8211; Zelensky on the agreement with the US on the use of Ukrainian natural resources]]></video:title>
      <video:description><![CDATA[In his latest statement, President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelensky expressed a categorical rejection of the terms of an agreement with the USA that could burden the country with debt for decades to come. Learn all the details of why Ukraine is not ready for such economic concessions.

At a press conference on February 23, 2025, Zelensky shared many important statements regarding the current political situation, international relations, and the future of Ukraine. He discussed his views on negotiations with the USA and outlined the main challenges the country faces amid the ongoing conflict.



Key Points of Zelensky's Press Conference
1. Refusal to Sign the Agreement with the USA: "I will not sign something that will require 10 generations of Ukrainians to pay"
Zelensky delivered a categorical refusal to sign an agreement in which Ukraine would have to repay huge sums for the use of its natural resources.
"I am not going to recognize $500 billion, with all due respect," he stated.
The President noted that terms requiring debt repayments over several decades are unacceptable for Ukraine, and the country is not ready for such long-term financial commitments. In his statement, he emphasized that Ukraine does not view American aid as debt, especially if that aid comes with double the repayment. He stressed that he opposes recognizing the American aid provided by President Joe Biden's administration as debt—a position insisted upon by the Trump White House.
"We must not recognize grants as debts. Whether you like it or not. I reached an agreement with Biden and negotiated with the United States Congress. I am grateful to Congress. It was supported by both parties," he said.

"I know what agreements are... That is, for every dollar given by the USA, Ukraine must repay two. In simple terms—it's 100% credit... If, for example, the USA approves $50 billion in aid in Congress, then we would have to repay 100% on the credit," Zelensky said.

"If it is forced and we]]></video:description>
