From May 20, work on dismantling the foundation of the Tithe Monastery will resume, said Natalia Panchenko, head of the branch of the "Treasury of the National Museum of Ukrainian History", in a comment to Ukrinform.

"There is still a foundation slab there, which will be removed at the beginning of next week. This is a loud part of the work, which was not carried out at night," she explained.

It has also become known that items from the utensils of the dismantled building will be transferred to the National Reserve "Kyiv-Pechersk Lavra" for storage, according to the resolution of the state executor.

As reported by the UOJ, Kyiv residents, clergy of Kyiv, and believers from different dioceses are bringing flowers to the site of the ruined temple in honor of the Equal-to-the-Apostles Princes Vladimir and Olga of the Tithe (Desiatynny) Monastery in Kyiv.
