Israeli Arab Affairs Analyst Zvi Yehezkeli Sends Rosh Hashanah Message from Uman
Senior Arab affairs commentator Zvi Yehezkeli traveled to Uman, Ukraine, for the Jewish New Year holiday, staying at the large settlement of Breslov Hasidim. From Uman, Yehezkeli delivered a pointed message in Arabic, stating that "the Jewish people are celebrating."
This marks Yehezkeli's annual trip to Uman for Rosh Hashanah, a pilgrimage site for many Breslov Hasidim. His presence and message from the Ukrainian city are seen as significant, particularly given the current geopolitical climate and the ongoing war in Ukraine. The broadcast of his message in Arabic aims to convey a specific sentiment to the Arab world regarding the perceived success and morale of the Jewish people during the holiday period.
