A frightening incident unfolded Tuesday evening near the Moldova-Ukraine border, when a Russian missile reportedly struck just meters away from a vehicle carrying Yidden traveling to Uman for Rosh Hashanah.

B’chasdei Hashem, the travelers escaped unharmed despite the missile landing dangerously close to their vehicle.

Thousands of Yidden are currently traveling through Moldova and continuing overland into Ukraine on their way to Uman, with Ukraine’s airspace remaining closed due to the ongoing war.

Ukrainian authorities have specifically warned those traveling to Uman this year that routes near the Moldova border remain vulnerable to Russian drone and missile attacks.
