“Respect, guys” or beating of women by the UOC temple seizure in Gnezdychno

During the seizure of the UOC temple in Gnezdychno village, the UOC believers were beaten

Another video appeared on the network about the methods of the “holy church of Ukraine”, which were used by the seizure of the temple of the Ukrainian Orthodox Church in the village of Gnezdychno, Ternopol region. The video clearly shows how scandalous “cleric” of the UOC KP Ivan Lesik is pushing and beating women – members of the Ukrainian Orthodox Church. The same methods of influence were used by his assistants, activists and fighters of the Right Sector.

Recall, on March 3, 2019, supporters of the OCU, with the help of fighters from the Right Sector, commited a raider seizure of the Holy Transfiguration temple in the village of Gnezdychno, Zbarazh district of Ternopol region. Believers of the canonical Church, who entered the temple for negotiations, were beaten and driven out into the street. The whole process was led by scandalous “cleric” of the UOC KP Ivan Lesik.

The press service of the UOC stressed that the incident with the beating of innocent people shows how insecure the UOC believers are in the situation of the gravest violation of their rights and freedoms.

As the UOJ reported, on February 3, 2019, activists staged a provocation and thwarted the Divine liturgy in the Holy Transfiguration temple in Gnezdychno village, Zbarazh district of Ternopol region. The police sided with the radicals.
