A 70-year-old Ukrainian Jewish man on Tuesday met with Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and told him he had undergone a late-in-life bris milah earlier in the day in the Israeli leader’s honor.
The unusual meeting took place at an event Netanyahu hosted at his Kyiv hotel for the Ukrainian Jewish community on the last day of his state visit to the country that was attended by rabbis and other Jewish dignitaries from across the country.
