Earlier, Dmytro Korchynsky had publicly called for the destruction of temples of the Ukrainian Orthodox Church. As reported by the UOJ, Korchynsky recommended entering UOC churches and, if Moscow books or icons were found there, they should be burnt, "preferably together with the churches". He argued that such actions were justified, referring to UOC churches as "chicken coops".
