One of the storm participants sent a jet of gas straight at Fr. Vasily, after which he lost consciousness and fell. The priest was hospitalized. At the moment he is unconscious.
At the same time, representatives of the Ivano-Frankivsk diocese in the hospital were told that Father Vasily is a “faker”, viz. he is simulating a loss of consciousness. The priests were also accused of their adherence to the “Russian world” ideology.
