Maxym Kozytsky, the head of the Lviv Regional Military Administration, stated that the 17 religious communities of the Ukrainian Orthodox Church (UOC) registered in the region have a "final chance to break away from the subordination to the Moscow Patriarch." Kozytsky made this statement on his Facebook page on August 20, the day the law banning the UOC was passed.
"I hope that the representatives of these communities will make the right choice within 9 months," the message reads.
He warned that "otherwise, their activities will be terminated through court proceedings."
"Let truth always prevail, because where there is truth, there is God," Kozytsky wrote.
As previously reported by the UOJ, residents of Lviv have been urged to report any UOC worship services held in private homes.
