Temple of the Ukrainian Orthodox Church desecrated and blocked in Lviv
On May 8, 2022, the faithful of the Vladimir church in Lviv were unable to attend the liturgy at their church. At night, unknown persons flooded the entrance doors with mounting foam. Parishioners reported this to the UOJ.
In addition, the temple was defiled with inscriptions “Russki are not people”, “devils of the FSB”, “Putin's house”. The community leader called the police.
Recall that on April 25, a man with a firearm announced the impending demolition of the Vladimir church, and on May 1, radicals tried to disrupt the service.
