Zelensky invokes religious war, declaring, “Christ has risen!” Hashem is in its midst; it will not be toppled; by daybreak, Hashem will come to its aid.

Despite being born a Jew, Zelensky ended his religion-laden speech with the emphatic declaration, “Christ is risen.” (snip) It is odd for Zelensky, who was born Jewish and whose great-grandparents died in World War II, to invoke a deity from inside a church.
