Moscow warns ‘Israel’ against supplying weapons to Ukraine

MOSCOW, Oct. 17 (YPA) – Deputy Chairman of Russia’s Security Council Dmitry Medvedev warned “Israel” on Monday against supplying weapons to Ukraine, saying any move to bolster Kiev’s forces would severely damage bilateral ties.

“Israel appears to be getting ready to supply weapons to the Kiev regime. A very reckless move. It would destroy all bilateral relations between our countries,” Dmitry Medvedev said in a statement .

A spokeswoman for Israeli Prime Minister Yair Lapid, who also holds the foreign affairs portfolio, told AFP his office would not be commenting on Medvedev’s remarks.

Israel had sent humanitarian aid to Ukraine, including helmets, but refrained from sending weapons.
