An 80 year old Israeli Breslover chassid collapsed today close to the Tzion of Rebbe Nachman of Breslov in Uman, Ukraine. Uman Hatzalah paramedics tried to resuscitate him but unfortunately he was pronounced dead at the scene. Breslov askanim and Jewish community leaders in Ukraine are working together to fly the body to Israel. It is a complicated situation due to the ongoing war in Ukraine and the need to cross international borders to get to an airport outside Ukraine.
