"I remind you that the enemy is treacherous and cynical, so there are high risks of massive missile attacks and all kinds of provocations," Biloshytsky stated.

The police recommend participating in services online, avoiding crowded places, and not succumbing to provocations.

Earlier, the UOJ reported that in the Khmelnytsky region, curfew will be shortened on Easter night.
