On June 24, 2025, priest Rostislav Kalinovsky, who was released from the TRC on Sunday, was taken to a military unit. This was reported to the UOJ by the priest's relatives.
According to them, the clergyman was deceitfully summoned to the TRC under the pretext of collecting documents.
After Father Rostislav arrived at the center, he was not released. As the relatives learned, the priest was taken to a military unit.
Recall, employees of the Kamianske TRC detained priest Rostislav on June 19, 2025. The clergyman was taken through a military medical commission (MMC) without explanation, after which he was transferred to the Pyatykhatky TRC. On June 20, Father Rostislav was driven around various military units all day, where they refused to accept him. Two days later, he was finally released.
It is known that Father Rostislav has a difficult family situation: his wife is a group III disabled person, and his mother suffers from a severe form of asthma. His brother serves in the AFU.
