Right Sector attacks the shrine in Ternopol again
The police squad having been called by the faithful found out the action had been registered in Ternopol City Council and could be held till the end of December on legal terms.
“On this day Metropolitan of Ternopol and Kremenets Sergiy celebrated his 65th birthday anniversary; therefore the believers were particularly cheerful and did not pay much attention to the radicals, told one of the parishioners to the UOJ. – Yet the faithful fear that nationalists are determined to resort to a more rigorous action, directed against them and the clergy.”
This is not the first action of the nationalists, taking place near the only UOC shrine in Ternopol.
UOJ follows the developments.
