Hi Elad,
It may be an issue with the way the Hebrew keyboard is mapped.  The
keyboard probably represents "V" and "C" incorrectly.   Which would make
sense, which one becomes 'V' and which one becomes 'C'?  There are at
least 2 for each of those that I can think of, right?

You may find something here:

Since it is an Israeli Linux site.

I think this may be related to X keyboard mapping, though that is a guess.

Sorry I do not know a specific solution, though.  You might try asking
in Hebrew specific IRC channels, or asking someone at a local Linux User
Group.
