Families with children have always been prioritised but after the events in the Kerch Straits and with the introduction of martial law, they are now our chief focus. For four years they have hoped for the ending of the war but the implementation of martial law has shattered these hopes.

However, somewhere in the ocean of these shattered hopes and lost illusions are pockets of kindness, respect and compassion which come from you our supporters, who help to save these people from such despair.

The only way is for our olim to go to the Promised Land.

As we see, the conflict in the Kerch Straits was only a probe, it will be easy to start a war in the Black and Azov Seas. The end of martial law won’t change anything as it can be introduced, cancelled or prolonged as politics dictate.

We are living in uncertain times – waiting for a war which could start now or in a year or two. For four years we have been waiting for the war in Donbass to end and coupled with the uncertainty of another war, it is a terrible time. There are no more illusions.
