Tuesday morning, March 15th, a rocket hit directly into the Yeshiva building of the Kharkov Jewish community.
The building is a second synagogue that is used for the boys’ school and dormitory.
Kharkov has been under constant bombardment and the main Synagogue on Pushkinskaya Street and the kindergarten and school have been damaged by nearby explosions.
Rabbi Moshe Moskovitz, Chief Rabbi and Chabad Shliach of Kharkov said they will not give up, despite the constant attacks:
“Despite the attacks on our institutions, the direct hit today on the Yeshiva and the windows of our main synagogue and the kindergarten that were broken from the bombings nearby, we will in the first opportunity renovate and restore and expand all our buildings and programs more than ever before.
“We are continuing to help evacuate people daily in addition to giving shelter and food to those who have moved into the synagogue and are sending daily hot meals and medicines to the elderly and needy who are trapped in their homes,” he said.
