A video has been posted online showing a young man provoking a woman because she was listening to a church service in Church Slavonic on her phone.
The incident reportedly took place in Lviv.
The provocateur first filmed the woman listening to the church service in Church Slavonic and then addressed her: "Why are you listening to the divine service in Russian in Lviv?"
"Why can't I? Who are you? God?... I know many languages, I listen to whatever language I want," the woman replied.
She asked him how many languages he knows and offered to communicate in French or Polish.
