On April 8, 2023, during an attempt to raid the cathedral in honor of the holy noble Prince Alexander Nevsky in Kamyanets-Podilskyi, one of the opponents of the UOC called himself Satan.

The video posted on the LAVRA Live telegram channel shows how the believing defenders of the temple sing the Jesus Prayer. Near them are several opponents of the UOC, one of whom loudly says, “I am Satan!”

Earlier, the UOJ wrote that an activist wearing a sweatshirt with the inscription "Satan" came to the Lavra.

Later, the pagan staged a provocation near the Kyiv-Pechersk Lavra, shouting to the believers of the UOC "Long live Satan", to which the believers replied: "Christ is Risen!"
