The group was somewhat smaller than previous delegations, but that may have been due to fears of travel to the Middle East during the current security situation.
The defense of Ukraine from the armed aggression of the Russian Federation and the observance of the rights of Ukrainian refugees in Israel became the subject of the meeting of the Ukrainian delegation with the adviser to the President of Israel on foreign policy issues, Zvi Vapni. The Embassy reported this at Facebook.
