Russia's justice ministry has gone to court in a bid to shut down the Russian branch of the Jewish Agency, which organises Jewish immigration to Israel.
The case at Moscow's Basmanny District Court concerns unspecified legal breaches. A hearing is set for 28 July.
Israeli media has reported a surge in the numbers of Russian Jews arriving to settle in Israel this year.
An Israeli minister condemned the court case, seeing it as punishment for Israel's stance on the Ukraine war.
Nachman Shai, Israel's diaspora affairs minister, said "Russian Jews will not be held hostage by the war in Ukraine" and "the attempt to punish the Jewish Agency for Israel's position on the war is pathetic and insulting".

I guess Putin's visit to his Iranian friends is put into a little more context now.

They are trying to close it for breaches of the law.
Don't you even read your own propaganda?

"Unspecified breaches of the law." Seems pretty vague to me.

Russian authorities suspected the Jewish Agency of illegally collecting data on Russian citizens, according to The Jerusalem Post.
Israeli officials quoted by the Israeli daily newspaper Haaretz say the number of Russian Jews arriving in the first six months of this year reached 16,598. The figure for the whole of 2021 was 7,500.
