Bennett has to say.

I also wonder why I haven’t seen this covered by the US media yet

I am not saying it is not true, but after the press did what they did to Hillary just based on Republican talking points, that is why I want to hear what Bennett says

More important why this story is so strange, Russia does not give aid to Israel, the U.S. does, and Israel knows perfectly well that the US would NOT want Ukraine to surrender and allow Putin to take over Ukraine with their puppet government.

It is bizarre at best, and it could be verified easily if we knew who this anonymous “senior Ukrainian official was”, zemensky confirmed it, or Bennett confirmed it

Also, Israel has denied this, but I find it interesting that is buried in the story:

A senior Ukrainian official said that Israeli Prime Minister Naftali Bennett told Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky on Tuesday that he should take Russian President Vladimir Putin’s proposal for ending the war. An official in the Israeli Prime Minster's Office denies the claim”

Driving the news: The senior Ukrainian official claimed Bennett initiated the call on Tuesday and recommended Zelensky take the offer.

Zelensky and his advisers didn’t like Bennett’s recommendation, according to the Ukrainian official.

"Bennett is basically telling us to surrender and we have no intention of doing that," the senior Ukrainian official said.

A senior official in the Israeli Prime Minister’s Office said that the details of the call as described the Ukrainian official were not true.

“We doubt that the official is a senior person that is in Ukraine now and who was on the call, because it was conducted on a private line. Our contacts are directly with President Zelensky and his close advisers," the official in the Prime Minister’s Office said.

The Israeli official said Bennett didn’t recommend that Zelensky take Putin’s offer because Israel hasn’t received such an offer. “The prime minister doesn’t intend to give Zelensky any recommendations or advice at any stage," the official said.

The Israeli official stressed the call between Zelensky and Bennett was good and long and included a discussion about the possibility of holding a mediation meeting in Jerusalem.
