Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu addressed the heinous vandalism attack against the tziyun of Rav Nachman ZT”Lin Uman. In his comments on Wednesday evening, 21 Kislev, the Prime Minister conducted a video chat, during which he spoke with “Yuval”, instructing him to contact Ukrainian authorities to address the attack and take the appropriate actions. The “Yuval” could have been the director-general of the Foreign Ministry, Yuval Rotem, or possibly; Minister Yuval Steinitz, who is close to Mr. Netanyahu.

Truth be said, the phone call and instructions to Yuval appeared more like a media stunt, but nonetheless, the Prime Minister did instruct the individual to contact the appropriate authority and explains that as a partner in the tziyun, Israel is not willing to tolerate such attacks.

It has since been reported that Sifrei Kodesh, paroches, and carpets soaked up the blood that was spilled by attackers who also placed a pig’s head R”L in the tziyun. It is added that the red substance poured on the tziyun was first said to be paint but is not reported to have been blood.
