Ukrainian police responded to the scene within minutes and began an investigation into the incident. Wolf notified Chabad’s emergency coordination center in Ukraine, which remains in ongoing contact with emissaries in the region.
“We are alive by an incredible miracle,” Wolf said in a statement. “We were on our way to Kherson, and about a kilometer and a half before the military checkpoint at the city’s entrance, a suicide drone exploded near us. My wife Chaya, my daughter Raizy and I are all safe. Thank God for the gift of life.”
