On April 10, 2023, the raiders made another attempt to seize the UOC Cathedral in Kamyanets-Podilsky.

The video shows one of the radicals first swearing at the priests and laity of the Alexander Nevsky Cathedral of the Ukrainian Orthodox Church, and then rushing at them with his fists, shouting "Ukraine above all!".

At the same time, he grabbed the face of one of the defenders of the cathedral, injuring him.

Earlier, the UOJ wrote that the Metropolitan of Kamyanets-Podilsky called on the police to prevent confrontation.
