Zoria reports seizure of UOC cathedral in Bila Tserkva
The spokesman of the OCU announced the victory over "supporters of the Russian world" in Bila Tserkva. In his opinion, the defenders of the UOC Cathedral "have no honor".
"Bishop of Bila Tserkva" Ivan (Eustratiy) Zoria announced in his telegram channel that his subordinates managed to seize the Transfiguration Cathedral of the UOC.
"This morning, the rector of the temple, Archpriest Mykolai Hopainych, and representatives of the eparchy, together with security guards, arrived at the Transfiguration Cathedral to finally enter it, remove the obstacles, created by the supporters of the ‘Russian world’," Zoria wrote, adding that Hopainych went inside at 9 in the morning.
According to the "bishop", the parishioners' defense of their shrine is a "pro-Russian provocation".
"If they had dignity, they would have fulfilled the decision of the Bila Tserkva community and vacated the cathedral without creating a ‘show’ for further circulation of anti-Ukrainian propaganda," Zoria said.
Let us add that the invaders cut the doors to the cathedral with a grinder and broke it open with a sledgehammer.
Earlier, the UOJ wrote that the UOC cathedral is being seized in Bila Tserkva.
