We don't know how well known the Star Wars films are in Israel, and we don't know if anyone was making a joke in the cutting room at Channel 13 in Israel, but no one at the TV station seems to have noticed Putin has probably not allied himself with the fictional empire and is now flying TIE Fighters with Stormtroopers over Ukraine.

In the video you can see destroyed streets, with what appears to be a shot down TIE Fighter filmed from a car, next to which two Stormtroopers are standing.
The origin of the video
The video appeared on the Internet in December 2014, and it wasn't the only one: several videos showed various spaceships from the Star Wars franchise in the middle of Germany. Here is the video embedded in the Israeli news:

Conclusion
A pretty embarrassing mistake that the Israeli TV station made there. According to 9 Breaking News , the broadcast of the material was followed by an internal investigation at Channel 13 and the employee responsible was suspended.
