Chernivtsi OVA reports on how many UOC parishes "transferred" to OCU
There are 367 religious communities of the UOC operating in Bukovyna. According to local authorities, some of them have allegedly joined the OCU.
The Chernivtsi Regional Military Administration (OVA) told Glavcom that from August 20, 2024, to April 20, 2025, thirty parishes of the Chernivtsi eparchy of the UOC "transferred" to the OCU.
According to OVA, there were 367 registered religious communities of the UOC in the region in 2024, of which 30 changed jurisdiction over the past year.
In his response to journalists, Roman Hreba, OVA's Deputy Head, stated that “all religious communities that underwent the re-registration process joined the OCU.”
No information was provided regarding UOC parishes changing jurisdiction in previous years.
Earlier, the UOJ reported that the Chernivtsi Eparchy "demonstrated on their fingers" why the transitions to the OCU are a deception.
