question about entering Russia with an Israeli passport

[Alina Israeli]

It must be true, since the agreement was signed: http:// 
www.newsru.com/russia/20mar2008/israel.html; http://www.haaretz.co.il/ 
hasen/spages/936212.html

And according to "Finansovye izvestiya" the number of tourists grew  
due to visa requirements simplifications: Правда, некоторым странам  
повезло - к примеру, тому же Израилю. За три последних месяца  
прошлого года туда съездили аж на 40% больше россиян. Это понятно:  
случилось долгожданное событие - отменили визовый режим. (http://
