Nun Savvatia, a resident of the Holy Trinity Koretsky Monastery, spoke about the results of searches by the Security Service of Ukraine that took place today.
In an interview with the Suspilne channel, nun Savvatia said that “the check is over.” The security forces, according to matushka, “talked to us, then checked our phones, our contacts, who we are in touch with, whether we have any connections.”
“No illegal connections were found with us. Then they inspected our buildings, which they were particularly interested in. They checked it all, but found nothing. We are not engaged in illegal activities, we were born in Ukraine, we live in Ukraine and we want to die in Ukraine. We pray for peace. We are all for Ukraine!” said the nun Savvatia.
Earlier, the UOJ wrote that the SBU had begun searches in the UOC eparchies.
