SBU shows what to do with those who celebrate Christmas on January 7
The video of the SBU features its employees breaking down the apartment doors with the comment: "Who comes 'caroling' to those who celebrate Christmas on January 7."
On December 24, 2025, a video titled "Does everyone know when Christmas is?" appeared on the TikTok channel of the SBU. In the footage, officers with automatic weapons break down the doors of an apartment. Over the video, the authors placed the caption "Who comes 'caroling' to those who celebrate Christmas on January 7."
The video is accompanied by the soundtrack of the carol "Good evening to you, dear host."
The SBU did not clarify whether this video is a real threat to those Orthodox who adhere to the Julian calendar or if it is a kind of humor from the law enforcement officers.
The video was not appreciated in the comments.
"Free country," wrote KAZUKI with irony, placing his words in quotes.
"Those who have celebrated on the 7th all their lives come," emphasized Valeriy.
"Communists also came to those who celebrated Christmas in principle, now new communists," wrote Future_pilot.
This is a reminder that on January 7, Christmas is celebrated in Ukraine by the UOC, UOC-KP, and the Exarchate of the Ecumenical Patriarchate. In the world, Christmas is celebrated according to the Julian calendar in the Jerusalem, Georgian, Russian, Serbian, Macedonian, Polish Churches, as well as on Mount Athos.
Earlier, the UOJ wrote that the SBU reported the number of cases opened against the UOC clergy.
