A doll covered in red as if it was bleeding, with a picture of President Ihor Kolomoyskyi of the Ukraine Jewish community has been placed on the steps of the historic "Brodsky" Synagogue in the center of the capital Kiev, according to Yediot Ahronot.
Israeli Ambassador to Ukraine, Joel Leon, condemned the incident, saying, "I hope law enforcement agencies will arrest the perpetrators as soon as possible." Leon attacked Ukraine's conduct in the fight against anti-Semitism, saying: "The state needs to do more, otherwise violence will spread and hit people."
