In the village of Yasynia, Khust Eparchy, supporters of the OCU are currently trying to seize the UOC church of the Nativity of the Virgin. MP Artem Dmytruk commented on the situation on his Telegram channel.
"After a relative lull, the persecutors of the Church have resumed their dirty work and started a new series of church seizures in the country," the MP wrote.
He reminded that a few days ago, representatives of the OCU seized the Trinity Church of the UOC in the village of Zastavky, Khmelnytskyi region, and now there is an ongoing attempt to seize the church in Yasynia, Zakarpattia region.
"I am carefully monitoring each attempt of raider seizure. We are documenting everything so that no one among the church persecutors goes unnoticed and is held accountable, at least in the future!" the message states.
As reported by the UOJ, in Yasynia, Zakarpattia region, OCU activists failed to seize the UOC temple.
