Israel's ambassador to Ukraine, Michael Brodsky, referred in an interview on Reshet Bet to the tensions between Russia and Ukraine.

"The families of the Israeli diplomats are due to evacuate this morning. We have prepared for this and they are all ready to leave. There are close to 20 people. Everyone will arrive in Israel today," said the ambassador. "We will be very organized to leave the country. We estimate that there are about ten thousand Israelis here. I hope that everyone will listen to our recommendation and in a very short period of time will leave the country. We, the envoys, remain here to help in any eventuality."
