⚡️🇺🇦 NEW - Armed men from the Ukrainian forces stormed an Orthodox church to expel the clergy and worshippers. This is part of Kiev's campaign against the Ukrainian Orthodox Church linked to the Moscow Patriarchate, which is targeted by a 2024 law banning Russian entities.
The Ukrainian authorities justify these actions on the grounds of suspected collaboration with the Russian aggressor, while observers such as the UN denounce possible religious persecution.
