 Arab media claims Ukrainian military fighting for Israel in Gaza. The Al-Arabi television network has released a story alleging the involvement of Ukrainians in the ranks of the Israeli Defence Forces in military operations in the Gaza Strip. However, Ukraine has not deployed its military personnel from the armed forces of Ukraine to the Middle East region according to the spokesperson of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Ukraine Ole Nikolenko. Ukraine did not send its soldiers to the Gaza Strip or any other region of the world. The army defends its territory against Russian aggression. He wrote on X. In response to the Arab media's coverage, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs representative suggested that the individuals shown in the footage could be of Slavic appearance or Israeli citizens of Ukrainian origin. Perhaps Al-Arabi TV is talking about Israeli citizens of Ukrainian or Slavic origins, but they have no connection to the Ukrainian state, stated Nikolenko. The spokesperson added that the Ukrainian side hopes for a speedy resolution to the conflict in the Middle East. Earlier, a segment aired on the Al-Arabi network, broadcasting programmes and news in Arabic, featuring individuals in military uniforms conversing in Russian. The actions, as claimed in the story, took place in the Gaza Strip. The approximately 30-second video circulating online was captioned. Ukrainians are participating in the ranks of the Israeli army during the war in the Gaza Strip.
