Here's a link to a news site report:

Zelensky begged Israel more than once for its anti missile system (not even the best one they have) but Israel has refused. They are attempting to be a "broker" of peace. I don't think a lot of these countries have any idea that Putin is not going to stop until he has crushed Ukraine into rubble.
Zelensky requested that Israel host a meeting with Russia, so that's okay. I guess they had to go to Moscow for it. But, it is unrealistic for them to think that Putin will change or compromise his intent. I think he is just posturing for the optics.
Israel, your lack of military aid to a country that is actively and currently being blown to bits by an invader is duly noted. If they can't control the bombers by 1) a no-fly zone, or 2) a superior anti aircraft system, then they are going to be bombed to rubble.
I understand that perhaps Israel doesn't want their defensive technology captured and reverse engineered by a potential enemy. Everyone understands that. But, this is not their best anti aircraft system. They have another one in the top five of the world's anti aircraft systems.
I am hoping that something Putin says to Israel will reverse their feelings of trying to hang on to commerce and safety for themselves, and they lighten up enough to help kick Putin in the balls.
