Be careful, Russia is waging an information war to discredit the visit of Benjamin Netanyahu. Well-known Ukrainian journalist and political expert Yuri Butusov on his page in the social network delivered an important message.

Russian-speaking Israeli media disseminated the defamatory information that allegedly the wife of the Prime Minister of Israel Benjamin Netanyahu during a visit to Ukraine at the beginning tactless allegedly chastised the crew, and then allegedly threw a piece of bread which she has been treated on arrival in Ukraine.

Unfortunately, a number of respected Ukrainian publications reprinted this nonsense.

First, there is no evidence, no names, no witnesses with respect to some incident with the wife of the Prime Minister on the plane.

Second, in the video where Netanyahu met spouses, obviously, if Sara Netanyahu and dropped some slices of bread, it is apparently random, no casts she had made, and generally tried to act sympathetic and in accordance with the Protocol.

In our eyes, we create a feed with another data noise and mixing the most important event in the history of Ukrainian-Israeli relations.

For the first time during the war with Russia, Prime Minister of Israel is visiting our country, and this breakthrough is very painfully perceived in Russia. Moscow is well aware that strengthening ties between Ukraine and Israel will be directly or indirectly aimed at countering Russian influence.

In recent years, Israel has sold to Ukraine electronic warfare systems for our two offices, and communications for one of the units, and programs of cooperation are expanding. We are talking about the modernization of fighter jets, the sale of the radar. All of this technology to the much higher class any of the Russian samples. Israel is interested in containing Russia, to limit the expansion of Putin in Syria, to counter the Union of Russia with terrorists from Hezbollah and Iran.

The Russian information war aimed at belittling the importance of Netanyahu’s visit to distract attention from the critical political importance of this visit. Shouldn’t be such a provocation.

 

Recall that Zelensky has told about cooperation with Israel.
