On May 1, 2023, the Primate of the UOC, His Beatitude Metropolitan Onuphry, came to the prayer standing of the faithful near the Kyiv-Pechersk Lavra.
The published footage shows His Beatitude praying at the reading of the Akathist to the Resurrection of Christ in the courtyard of the Lower Lavra together with parishioners, who have been defending the monastery for more than a month.
