Kiev Patriarchate and "volunteers" occupy the Assumption Cathedral of the Lavra and hold a 15-minute "service"
Representative of the UOC-KP, "priest" Dmitry, accompanied by 200 "volunteers" who participated in the service, came to the Cathedral on the pretext of visiting the National Kiev-Pechersk Historical and Cultural Reserve.
Two priests of the Ukrainian Orthodox Church attempted to prevent a 15-minute "worship" of the schismatics, however, as reported, "the activists asked not to interfere with the service."
The "patriots" justified their provocation by the fact that the Assumption Cathedral is part of the reserve, which "belongs to the people of Ukraine."
