According to Gawker, USA Today, Israeli media, and other news publications, Jews in the eastern Ukrainian city of Donetsk have been ordered by pro-Russian militants to register their identities and pay a tax. According to Gawker, "should Ukrainians of Jewish nationality fail to comply, they will lose their citizenship and be forced outside the country with a confiscation of property."
By signing this petition, you are agreeing with the assertion that Jews in Eastern Ukraine should not be singled out, taxed, and threatened.
