UGCC сhaplain targets yet another UOC church in Kolomyia

Uniate chaplain Mykola Medynskyi

UGCC chaplain Mykola Medynskyi, the organizer of the raider seizure of the Annunciation Church, has taken issue with yet another UOC parish in Kolomyia. This time, the Greek Catholic cleric was outraged that the church was located too close to an airfield. Medynskyi wrote about this on his Facebook page.

“Five hundred meters from a strategic facility, another wasps’ nest of the Moscow Church (in fact, an FSB subdivision) has settled,” Medynskyi wrote.

The chaplain appealed to “patriots” with a call to somehow respond to this “outrageous fact.”

Supporters of the raider seizure of the Annunciation Church of the UOC threatened believers with having "their throats slit.”

As the UOJ previously reported, UOC parishioners of the Annunciation temple in Kolomyia lodged a complaint against the law enforcers who never started a criminal investigation on the illegal seizure of the temple on June 4.
