They tried to export an ancient Jewish prayer book from Odesa region abroad

The man tried to take the prayer book to Moldova through the Majaki-Zruchne-Palanka checkpoint. During the interview, he stated that he does not like goods that require declaration.

But during a joint inspection, Ukrainian and Moldovan customs officials discovered an ancient book - a collection of holiday prayers, published in 1902 in Lemberg.

A rare book was seized. Most likely, after the examination and trial, it will become a museum exhibit.

About this reports reported in the press service of Odessa Customs.

A collection of holiday prayers was published in 1902 in Lemberg. This is what modern Lviv was called during the Austro-Hungarian Empire (1772-1918), and later during the fascist occupation (1941-1944) in the famous Jewish Balaban printing house.
