On April 16, 2026, a lane in the village of Hnativka in Kyiv region was named after the late head of the UOC-KP, Filaret Denysenko, OCU cleric Yaroslav Chernenkyi reported on Facebook. He thanked the head and secretary of the village council, as well as the deputies, for their unanimous decision.
According to Chernenkyi, Filaret blessed a cross in Hnativka in 2010 on the site where the new Church of the Entry of the Most Holy Theotokos into the Temple was later built. The church is now under the jurisdiction of the OCU.
Hnativka has a population of about 350 people. Filaret Lane is 150 meters long.
Earlier, the UOJ wrote that, according to representatives of the UOC-KP, the OCU stole Filaret’s body after his death.
