Sources report that the OCU is planning provocations timed to the feast day of the heavenly patron of the Primate of the Ukrainian Orthodox Church, His Beatitude Metropolitan Onuphry.
Several sources state that on June 25, the feast day of Venerable Onuphry the Great, OCU supporters are promising to deliver a “surprise for the Moskals.”
According to UOJ’s sources, this could involve a renewed attempt to seize the Holy Spirit Church in Chernivtsi, as well as provocations in Kyiv during the celebrations in honor of the Primate’s patronal feast.
It will be reminded that OCU cleric Roman Hryshchuk previously referred to UOC believers in Chernivtsi as “zombies” and called for their extermination.
