On July 1, 2022, vandals vandalized the UOC church in the village of Kordyshev in the Ternopil region by spilling pig's blood in front of the temple doors as reported on the Facebook page “Shumshchyna Pravoslavna”.
It is said that in the morning, before the beginning of the service, the rector and parishioners saw spilt pig's blood at the entrance to the church. The police were called to the scene and recorded the incident.
"We hope the perpetrators will be brought to justice. According to their deeds you shall know them, the Holy Scripture testifies to us, these people obviously have dark, evil deeds, not God’s.
