Zaporozhie radicals try to disrupt UOC service

On the Day of Remembrance of the Holodomor Victims, Zaporozhie nationalists hung yellow-blue strings across the passage at the house at 7 Aleksandrovskaya Street, where in 1932 there was a children's house and where hundreds of children died from hunger, and attached an inscription "Moscow priests are not welcome here "to the memorial plaque with an icon, reports "Vremia Novostei" ("News Time").

Radicals arranged this, waiting for a moleben for the victims of the Holodomor, which was to be held by the Zaporozhie eparchy of the UOC at 12:00.

The prayer service was held anyway. Dozens of faithful members of the UOC took part in it.
