Israeli police officers have arrived in Uman, Cherkasy Oblast, to assist Ukrainian officers during the annual Rosh Hashanah pilgrimage. The Israeli officers will work alongside Ukrainian law enforcement in areas where Breslov Hasidic pilgrims are staying and gathering during the celebrations. They will remain in Uman until the end of Rosh Hashanah, conducting joint patrols with Ukrainian officers, State Emergency Service rescuers, and National Guard personnel.
The U.S. State Department previously advised American citizens not to travel to Uman due to the risk of Russian attacks and insufficient shelter capacity.
