Israeli-Ukrainian visiting Uman for Rosh Hashanah detained, conscripted into Ukrainian military
According to the report, the man, who was born in Ukraine but is an Israeli citizen who has lived in Israel for many years, was detained during a document check.
A 49-year-old Israeli-Ukrainian Breslov Hassid from Betar Illit, a father of six, was detained and conscripted into the Ukrainian army at the Ukraine-Romania border while returning to Israel after Rosh Hashanah in Uman. The man, born in Ukraine and an Israeli citizen, was reportedly separated for additional screening after speaking with border officers, leading to his conscription. His family has since lost contact with him, and Breslov community activists are attempting to locate him. The Israeli Foreign Ministry has informed the family it is working to find him. This incident highlights Ukraine's strict conscription laws, which apply to men aged 18-60 with Ukrainian citizenship, even those with dual Israeli citizenship who reside in Israel.
