I don't understand your question...
1: What is a Pagrum?
2: Isreal (the country/state) was created in 1948, the last Russian Tsar was killed in 1918
3: Most Russian tsars never traveled abroad

There isn't any. As far as I know, Russian army has never been to Palestine or Israel (not even close). The war with the Ottoman Empire took its course in Crimea, the Balkans and there were some navy battles in the Black Sea.

The United Kingdom fought against the Ottoman Empire in Palestine in World War I.
After that Britain ruled the territory known as the British Mandate of Palestine, which is today's Israel and Jordan. Anyway, the Brits gave everything to the east of the river Jordan (that was most of the land, and comprises modern day Jordan) to the Arabs. Everything west of the river (the territory of modern day Israel) was to be divided 50-50 between the Jews and Arabs, with Jerusalem being a multinational enclave, shared between the two sides. The Jews accepted, the arabs rejected, then the British Mandate of Palestine expired in 1948, and the Brits basically gave up control and left despite there not being an agreement between the Jews and Arabs, the Zionists declared the state of Israel, the Arab countries surrounding Israel invaded.
