What flash for Zorki Fed and Kiev ?

Something that can be easily fitted with a PC sync cable... Seriously, any flash that can be triggered via cable and has at least one manual or non-TTL automatic mode will do - but hotshoe-only flashes need fragile shoe adapters, and TTL-only ones won't work at all.
 
The Vivitar 283 is a nice, powerful flash - see if you can get one with the original filter/wide angle set. It runs on 4 AA batteries and has 4 automatic modes + manual.

Well, could YOU be more specific? As I said, pretty much the only restriction would be lack of a PC sync cable for the flash. Almost all old and many current or recent flashes will work fine on FSU rangefinders.

If you are asking for an aesthetic companion flash that is also safe and functional, there aren't really any - genuine period FSU flashes tend to be ugly grey bricks of plastics you'd only want to touch with electrical safety gloves, if they work at all. 70's automatic a.k.a. "computer" flashes like the already mentioned Vivitar 283, a Metz 40CT1 or the like would be about as good a match as can be - and these tend to be very affordable as their high trigger voltage makes them unsuitable for electronic cameras.
