In the village of Novosilky in the Kyiv region, an incident occurred on the territory of the Ukrainian Orthodox Church (UOC) community. On the night of November 11, unknown individuals broke the fence and brought several tons of garbage onto the property, also discarding books and setting them on fire, reports kozakTv1. This site is located on private property where UOC parishioners are temporarily holding services after the seizure of the Nativity of the Most Holy Theotokos Church, which earlier came under the control of activists from the OCU and UGCC.
Several months ago, local activists from the Orthodox Church of Ukraine (OCU) and the Ukrainian Greek Catholic Church (UGCC) took control of the church belonging to the UOC, compelling Orthodox believers to seek a temporary place for prayer.
As previously reported by the Union of Orthodox Journalists, the faithful of the UOC parish in honor of the Nativity of the Most Holy Theotokos in the village of Novosilky, Kyiv region, after the seizure of their church, prayed for the first time in a repurposed space – a dilapidated old house, which they began to arrange on their own. Orthodox Christians brought furniture and utensils into the old hut.
