Rector of the UOC Church in Trebukhov spoke about the attempt of the OCU to seize the temple

On February 7, 2023, visiting people in camouflage tried to seize the Intercession Church of the UOC in the village of Trebukhov, Kyiv region. The UOJ was told about this by the rector of the temple, Archpriest Mikhail Pavlyuk.

According to him, about 50 people took part in the OCU action for the raider seizure of the temple.

The archpriest noted that the supporters of the OCU were able to get into the temple, but soon they were forced out of there by the parishioners of the UOC. At the same time, the priest added that the OCU activists are still on the church territory.

“They entered the temple, but we forced them out. I called the police and told them — now the police will come, I will open the church and pray in the presence of the police. But they didn’t listen to me,” the abbot said.
