Staff members of the Regional Recruitment Center (TRC) detained Archpriest Mikhail Shved, rector of the Church of the Intercession in the village of Kurazhin, Kamenets-Podolsk Diocese of the Ukrainian Orthodox Church. According to UOJ, the incident occurred on November 11, 2026.

Father Mikhail is actively engaged in pastoral care for parishes in the Novoushitsky Deanery. According to parishioners, the priest has a number of serious medical conditions, including cardiovascular disease, varicose veins, and color blindness. In addition, he is the father of four children.

The priest has now been taken to Khmelnytskyi to undergo a military medical examination. The faithful are calling for prayerful support for their pastor.
