Natan Sharansky urges Russian Jews to move to Israel before possible shutdown – Russia’s Justice Ministry aims to “shut down” the local branch of the Jewish Agency, preventing Russian Jews from moving to Israel | The Forward
Russian Jews should move to Israel as soon as possible, former Jewish Agency Chairman Natan Sharansky urged on Friday, less than a day after Moscow called for the aliyah organization’s liquidation in Russia.
In a Facebook post, Sharansky, a former “refusenik” who was imprisoned by the Soviet authorities for nearly a decade during the late 1970s and early ’80s due to his human rights activism, framed the move as part of the ongoing Russian invasion of neighboring Ukraine, which has seen a surge in immigration to Israel from both countries.
