Archbishop Savva (Tutunov), vicar of Patriarch Kirill and deputy head of the Moscow Patriarchate's Administrative Office, announced on his Telegram channel a fundraising campaign to purchase three drones "for fulfilling combat missions of the 127th Special Purpose Brigade based in Sevastopol".
"Orthodox believers, many of them deeply churched individuals, are carrying out combat missions here," Tutunov wrote.
He did not specify what exact "combat missions" the Mavic 3 Pro drones would be used for. Online sources claim these UAVs are typically used for reconnaissance, artillery fire adjustment, and dropping munitions.
Earlier, the UOJ reported that UOC Archpriest Oleksiy Kuznetsov was killed by a Russian drone strike.
