In the Network appeared a video of a conversation between a parishioner of the Kyiv-Pechersk Lavra and the policeman who does not allow handing over food to the people in the sealed building 58.

The video was published on the “1 Kozak” Telegram channel.

The woman asks a police officer if his conscience is not bothering him, given that he forbids food to be delivered to the people who have been hungry since yesterday.

"Me? Absolutely not. Why should it bother me? What do these people mean to me, they are nothing to me. Whether I pity them or not, I don't know these people. There's an instruction that no one should enter here, nothing should be handed over, and I am following it,” the policeman replied.

As previously reported, there appeared a video on the Net that shows a monk throwing bread to the people in a sealed building.
