TRC reps detained a monk from the Holy Nicholas Myltsi Monastery while he was performing obedience on the territory near the monastery, as reported by the Telegram channel kozakTv1.

Father Vlasiy passed the military medical commission in thirty minutes and was immediately sent to the training cener. Believers regard such actions by the TRC as barbarism and another act of terror against the brotherhood defending their shrine from expropriation.

This is already the second case of violent abduction of the clergy from this community. Previously, Archimandrite Nikolay had already been abducted from the Myltsi Monastery. TRC employees "busified" the priest in the morning right at the monastery gates when he went out for a walk. A minibus pulled up, the priest was grabbed, forced inside, and taken to the military enlistment office in Lutsk.

Earlier, the UOJ reported that the TRC and SBU abducted two monks from a UOC monastery in Izium.
