Ukraine’s ambassador to Israel, Yevhen Korniichuk, has confirmed that his country is considering suspending its current visa-free travel arrangements with Israel after reports surfaced that Israeli officials had leaked high-level intelligence to Russia. The intelligence had reportedly been garnered at the Ramstein Air Base forums where Western allies gather to discuss how to respond to the ongoing invasion.
Tensions between Kyiv and Tel Aviv have been gradually coming to a head over the past year due to Israel’s perceived inaction regarding the invasion as well as a clampdown on Ukrainian refugees in recent months.
