Prime Minister Naftali Bennett is seeking to evacuate as many Israelis as possible from Ukraine by Tuesday amid growing fears of a Russian invasion, according to Saturday reports.
Israeli officials believe the window for evacuating citizens from Ukraine is closing fast, and may be shut by Wednesday morning.
There are around 4,500 Israelis registered with the Israeli embassy in Ukraine, the Foreign Ministry told The Times of Israel. The ministry estimated that there are 10,000-15,000 Israelis in the country.
The Biden administration has warned Israel that Russia could invade Ukraine within days, according to Saturday Hebrew media reports. Russia has massed over 100,000 troops on Ukraine’s borders. US officials said that Russia’s buildup of firepower near Ukraine has reached the point where it could invade on short notice.
Israeli airlines have started to increase flights to Ukraine to aid the evacuation. Israel’s El Al, Israir and Arkia airlines are offering rescue flights.
Defense Minister Benny Gantz said Saturday that he has instructed the Israel Defense Forces to prepare for the possibility of helping evacuate Israelis from Ukraine.
