It has become known which of the officials of Krasyliv, Khmelnytskyi region, is personally engaged in "transfers" of UOC temples to Dumenko's structure.

According to the UOJ, all raiding attacks on the temples of the Ukrainian Orthodox Church in Krasyliv and the district are supervised by the town mayor, Nila Ostrovska, formerly an active member of former Ukrainian President Petro Poroshenko's Eurosolidarity party.

Also, the seizures of UOC churches in Krasyliv are mostly the personal initiative of Nila Ostrovska, who is on good terms with the "dean" of the OCU in the city, Ivan Kulinich.
