The latest hostilities in the decades-long Israel-Palestine conflict have dominated news headlines and overshadowed the war in Ukraine. In Russia, the conflict is also at the center of attention. State propaganda has criticized the actions of the Israeli authorities, blamed the United States for failing to secure peace and mocked Russians who moved to Israel in opposition to the invasion of Ukraine. At the same time, thousands of Russians who moved to Israel since February 2022 have voiced solidarity with their new country and are taking part in efforts to help the victims of the conflict. In this episode, we talked to Russians who moved to Israel last year, after the Russian invasion of Ukraine began, about their experiences amid these events. We also speak with Ivan U. Klyszcz, a researcher of Russian policy at the International Center for Defense and Security in Tallinn, Estonia, on the official Russian position on the conflict and how the war might affect the course of the war in Ukraine.
