Details of the forceful seizure of the Kremenets spiritual school of the Ukrainian Orthodox Church appeared in the Network.
The telegram channel "Pershy Kozatsky" said that on 30 November at 5:30 am, the police cordoned off the complex of Kremenets St. Nicholas Cathedral of the Ukrainian Orthodox Church.
After that, law enforcers broke into the dormitory of the Kremenets Theological College, where about 100 students live. The police broke and cut the door to the rooms with bolt cutters and demanded that children with their belongings leave the premises.
Meanwhile, the locks in the cathedral were torn off. The temple was blocked, and law enforcers sealed all the rooms of the complex. Even the new building was sealed, for which the representatives of the authorities and the reserve did not have any documents.
The children were offered to live in the basement of the Kremenets vocational school, but they refused. In the end, the students were given shelter by the Kremenets convent of the UOC.
Earlier, the UOJ wrote that the police stormed the Kremenets theological school and evicted the female students.
