The adopted son of Rabbi Moshe Azman, the Rav of Kyiv’s Brodsky shul and Ukraine’s chief rabbi, has lost his life in combat against Russian forces.
Rabbi Azman announced the devastating news on Twitter, saying that a levaya would be held for his son, Matityahu (Anton) Samborski hy”d, at the Central Synagogue. Samborski, whom Rabbi Azman adopted in 2002 at the age of 11, had been officially listed as missing in action in late July.
In an earlier Facebook post, Rabbi Azman shared that he had given his son the Hebrew name Matityahu, in honor of Yehuda HaMaccabee.

Did he die by friendly fire?
..
His death is tragic no doubt. But is hy’d appellation appropriate for this context?
He means HYD on Putin of course, not the petty Russian conscripts …or maybe indeed on all today’s grandchildren of Bogdan Chmelnitzky and Tzar Nikolai ymach shemom ..so the should finish each other off in this never ending war. Who knows.

Once again:
What are you saying?
How can you make “jokes” when a yid is dead and his family is in mourning?
You really should be blocked from making comments because of your disgustingly callous attitude towards another yids precious life.
I can’t imagine that you, yourself, are actually a frum yid.
