TRC employees abduct UOC cleric of Chernivtsi Eparchy
The priest has already been sent to a military training ground in the Chernivtsi region.
Employees of the Territorial Recruitment and Social Support Center (TRC) detained a cleric of the Chernivtsi–Bukovyna Eparchy of the Ukrainian Orthodox Church – Priest Valeriy Florescu, rector of the Church of St. Basil the Great in the village of Korchevtsi, Hlyboka Deanery. The incident was reported on November 7 on the Facebook page of the eparchy’s faithful.
At present, the priest is being held at a training ground in the Chernivtsi region.
“We ask everyone to intensify their prayers for him. We also urge continued prayers for Priest Fedir Hnitetsky, who remains in detention,” the Orthodox faithful of Bukovyna appealed.
As previously reported by the UOJ, employees of the TRC in Smila abducted another UOC priest, Fr. Oleksii Lukash.
