According to reports from the scene, Orthodox Christians were praying near the fence of their church today. Inside the church, raiders from the OCU were conducting their "worship," having seized the church on October 3.
During the prayers, representatives of the Dumenko structure, affiliated with the OCU, attacked Orthodox Christians, beating Matushka Maria and parishioners of the church.
