The "Prayer for Ukraine" was held at the Western Wall for the fourth time. It is stated that embassy diplomats participated in it together with the community, Ukrainian Jews and friends of Ukraine.
They unfurled a thirty-meter Ukrainian flag, which according to the diplomats is "a symbol of our unity and resilience."
