On February 24, 2025, it became known that the heating in the cell of Metropolitan Arseniy, who is held at the Dnipro Detention Center, is not working. This was reported by the press service of the Sviatohirsk Lavra.

In the midst of the winter cold, this poses a serious threat to the hierarch’s health.

The Sviatohirsk Lavra calls on all believers to intensify prayers for the health and prompt release of Metropolitan Arseniy.
