Ukrainian Ambassador to Israel Yevhen Korniychuk highly appreciated the proposal voiced by Deputy Foreign Minister Sharyn Haskel to transfer to Ukraine any Russian-made weapons seized by the IDF in Lebanon, the Gaza Strip or the West Bank, the Times of Israel reports.

“I welcome the proposal and hope that the State of Israel approves it. The weapons made in Russia, which are in the hands of the terrorist organizations, prove that Russia supports and encourages Iran, Hezbollah and Hamas and all those who aim to kill Israeli citizens and soldiers. What else needs to happen in order for the State of Israel to wake up and realize that Russia acts aggressively against Israel behind the scenes, through the partners of the axis of evil, and that Ukraine and Israel are exactly fighting the same enemies,” Korniychuk said.

It is noted that the Israeli government refused to send weapons to Ukraine throughout the war, and despite Haskel's suggestions, there is no sign that the policy will change.
