On the night of March 23, 2025, a Russian Shahed drone strike in Kyiv killed a member of the “Emmanuel Church” Protestant community, Oleksandr Garanskyi, and his five-year-old daughter, Nicole, Slovo pro Slovo reports.
The only survivor in the family is the mother, Oleksandra. The blast threw her aside, and she is now in intensive care, where doctors are fighting for her life.
According to the report, the family had come to Kyiv in 2022 from the frontline town of Orikhiv in Zaporizhzhia Oblast, fleeing the war. Both Oleksandr and Oleksandra were actively involved in the life of their church community and lived in a house on church property.
Earlier, the Union of Orthodox Journalists reported that in Hryshyne, two young altar boys from a UOC church were killed in a Russian shelling.
