24 hours after leaving his home in Kiev, Manor Solomon is scheduled to cross the border from Ukraine to Poland in the next few hours. Solomon decided to enlist the help of a local man who took him in his car and cross Ukraine from east to west to cross the border into Poland and escape the horrors of war. The road from Kiev to the west was long and congested so Solomon had to stay in the car for 24 hours already.
On the Polish side, his agents Gilad Katsav and Shlomi Ben Ezra, who arrived in Warsaw yesterday, are waiting for Solomon. The two are in contact with the actor and hope that in the coming hours they will welcome him in Poland. Solomon has a Portuguese passport other than the Israeli one so he has no problem crossing the border. To the extent that everything goes smoothly, Solomon will take off for Israel by tomorrow to return to his family and girlfriend who are waiting for him here with great concern.
Solomon, meanwhile, has not yet crossed the border into Poland, and uploaded a story to his personal Instagram account in which he tried to reassure his followers: “After a 16-hour road trip I am at the border in Poland,” he wrote. “I’ve been waiting seven hours for the rescue. Thanks to everyone for the concern, hope it will be behind me soon.”
Manor’s father, Yossi Solomon, said in an interview with “Northern Halli” 1044FM: “Manor is currently crossing the border into Poland. He left Kiev on a 15-hour drive and is currently crossing into Poland. From there he will return to Israel tomorrow or Sunday morning. There is fighting. “They shut down the league for a month. The Brazilians also want to leave, at the last minute they were told they could fly, so they closed the sky and the Brazilians are very angry. Those who can leave were told to leave.”
The father of an actor Shekhtar added: “He says there are huge traffic jams. He does not sleep all night. Waiting to move to Poland, the embassy there helps. From there they will travel to Warsaw and then hope to catch a flight to Israel. He does not encounter Russian forces “Great, people are traveling against the direction of traffic just to escape. He left all his equipment there, took a small suitcase and came home.”
“He heard huge explosions. The so-called winds of war. We’re under pressure, we don’t sleep all night. There’s not always absorption either, it’s not easy. We hope he gets through it. They were told they were stopping the league anyway.”
On his future: “Contractually he is supposed to return, but if the situation is like this no one will return. In the summer we are supposed to leave anyway. There are offers, the Ukrainians wanted him to continue. He is not ready and they understood our paths are separate. The dream is to reach the Premier League, “Every effort to make it happen. In the end, but it will be green, I believe. I am from Haifa and that is my dream, maybe for the retirement season.”
