In a speech Wednesday the Jewish president of Ukraine, Volodymyr Zelensky, called upon the Jewish people to stand up for his country. In his speech Zelensky specifically called out deadly attacks by the Russians on two Jewish areas: the Babyn Yar Holocaust Memorial and Uman, the spiritual birthplace of Hasidic Judaism. “Last night we were all bombed in Kyiv. And we all died again in Babyn Yar – from a missile attack … I am now addressing all the Jews of the world – can’t you see what is happening?

Shout about the killings of Ukrainians,” Zelensky said in a video address. READ MORE
