On 23 June 2023, unknown persons attached a megaphone with recordings to the fence near the Church of St Agapitus of the Caves near the entrance to the Lower Lavra. None of the activists are on site. A video from the Kyiv-Pechersk Lavra was made available to the UOJ.
The megaphone broadcasts the recorded shouts of the protesters: "Saboteurs in cassocks", "Shame", and "Mazepa is our hero".
As reported, the court placed the organizer of the protests at the Lavra under 24-hour arrest for causing a drug-related traffic accident.
