From CBN News: JERUSALEM, Israel — Israeli Prime Minister Naftali Bennett urged the thousands of Israelis in Eastern Europe to leave Ukraine as concerns about a potential Russian invasion continue to grow.

“Like the entire world, we hope that the tension will end without an escalation. But our first obligation is to take care of Israeli citizens. Therefore, on Saturday the foreign minister and I, and our teams saw to it to greatly increase the frequency of flights to Israel, and I am calling again upon Israelis in Ukraine: come home. Don’t take unnecessary risks. Don’t wait for a situation where you really want to come back, but it will be impossible,” Bennett said during his Sunday cabinet meeting…

Israeli authorities have also been working on a secret plan to rescue Jews from Ukraine and bring them to Israel if an invasion happens, The Jerusalem Post reports. Details of the operation remain unclear.

The foreign minister said more than 6,000 Israelis in Ukraine have signed up to receive emergency updates and information from Israel’s embassy.

Despite the calls to evacuate, Israelis aren’t filling up flights from Ukraine to Tel Aviv, Foreign Ministry officials said on Sunday.

Israel has already begun evacuating the families of its diplomats in Ukraine.

However, the Israeli Embassy in Kyiv will continue to operate with a full team of diplomatic staff, according to Israel’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs.

“We are reinforcing the embassy in Kyiv in order to better address the needs of citizens of Israel and the Jewish community in Ukraine if necessary,” Deputy Foreign Minister Idan Roll said.

How are you praying for Israel?

Father, help us be alert and to discern the truth of the events that are happening in the Ukraine.
Your Word tells us You desire that all people be saved, that they come to You in repentance for their sins.
It also states that in the last days You will gather Your people back to the land You gave them.
Ezekiel 39:28
Then they will know that I am the Lord their God because I made them go into exile among the nations, and then gathered them again to their own land; and I will leave none of them there any longer.
God is moving. We need to obey and be busy about His work-telling others about Him, sharing the gospel of Jesus Christ while there is still time.
God is graciously providing this time for us to act in His name to witness to His indescribable Love and Mercy.
Father, we look up to You. Help us humble ourselves and obey.
In the name of Your Son, Jesus, Amen
