Pictures of the Day

After much debate, Ukraine decided to end the discussion and shut the borders of the country to everyone from now until the end of the month of September. Nobody will be able to fly in, so besides for people that live there, the pilgrimage to Uman will not be happening.

To many though that did not mean give up, but go now before they close the border. No matter that the trip will now become 4-5 weeks, plus quarantine upon return, instead of 1 to 1.5 weeks.

It didn't help as when they arrived, Ukraine did not let them in. A bunch were turned around and immediately sent back to Israel, while others are still being held in the airport.
