On April 8, 2023, a group of about 200 people came to the territory of the cathedral in Kamyanets-Podilskyi and declared their desire to transfer the UOC community of the cathedral into the OCU.
Meanwhile, the real parishioners are praying to God. There are so many believers that the cathedral is not able to accommodate all the believers. Also, police are present outside the temple.
Later it became known that on the territory of the cathedral, unknown persons initiated the collection of some signatures.
Also, there were provocateurs who started defacing church property.
As reported, Kamyanets-Podilskyy City Council confiscated 20 plots of land from the UOC.
