The Jews of Kyiv were congratulated on Hanukkah by Kyiv Mayor V. Klitschko. He said that the Ukrainian and Jewish peoples "honourably overcome all the trials and fight for peace in their lands".
As reported, the SBU conducted searches in the Pochaiv Lavra because the honour of Jews was offended there.
