Israeli Ambassador to Ukraine Michael Brodsky predicts that this year twice as many Hasidim will come to Uman as last year, Ukrinform reports.

Hasidim believe that their pilgrimage will be quite safe, as no emergencies occurred last year.

"Although we keep saying that Ukraine is not the safest place in the world at all, there is a war going on and anything can happen. Since Ukraine has not restricted the entry of pilgrims in any way, and Israel cannot do it technically, cannot and does not want to do it, tens of thousands of pilgrims will come this year as well," predicted the Israeli ambassador.

He also said that Israeli police officers will come to Uman to help Ukrainian law enforcement officers, together they will ensure order in the city.

"I hope that like last year, everything will go more or less smoothly and seamlessly, and just as they will come calmly, so they will leave in a few days", summarized Brodsky.

As reported by the UOJ, in Khmelnytskyi region, the authorities banned a religious procession of the UOC to Pochaiv.
