The Cross Procession of the Ukrainian Orthodox Church, which started from the Vladimir Hill in Kyiv, is entering the Holy Dormition Kyiv-Pechersk Lavra while the tail of the column is still on the Vladimir Hill, as evidenced by the online broadcast of the Inter TV channel.
As the cameras captured, at the moment when the column of the faithful entered the Kyiv-Pechersk Lavra, a large number of UOC believers were just beginning their prayer procession from the Vladimir Hill.
As reported earlier, the aerial footage of the cross procession of the UOC in Kyiv was published online.
