On November 20, 2023, representatives of the 'National Corps' blocked the hospital in the city of Cherkasy, where beaten believers of the UOC were brought.
Individuals in military uniforms claiming to be representatives of the 'National Corps' blocked all entrances and exits to the Third City Hospital in Cherkasy, as reported by 'Watch on First Cossack.'
It is this hospital where the beaten UOC believers, injured during the seizure of the Nativity of the Virgin Mary Convent, were brought.
According to available information, the 'National Corps' representatives are not allowing anyone, including doctors, to enter the premises. No one has access to the beaten UOC believers.
