‘One war for Another’: Ukrainian Refugees Leave Israel to Return Home 

Sudan Events – Sumaya Sayed

Many Ukrainian refugees began to leave Israel to Romania, as they fled their home. The Ukrainian Ambassador Yevhen Korniychuk said It’s unclear how many refugees from the war in Ukraine are in Israel.

About 15,000 Ukrainian nationals are registered at the Ukrainian Embassy, but that figure in not clearly fixed. As a result, many Ukrainian refugees began to leave Israel to Romania, as they fled their home, fearing of another war.

For the roughly 260 Ukrainians in Gaza, which has been devastated by persistent Israeli air raids and faces inadequate supplies of food, water, and medicine, adjustments may be more difficult.

Given the relatively low standard of living in Gaza, Ukraine itself “probably” will finance charter flights to take Gaza evacuees from Egypt to a country bordering Ukraine — Moldova, Romania, or Poland, the ambassador said.
