The ongoing war has raised concerns about the relationship between Ukraine’s orthodox church and Russia.
The state has been wary about the institution with deep links to Moscow, though the branch of the church still affiliated with Russia formally renounced its ties.

The church has been a great place to hide things throughout the years… Just ask the Vatican.
The West is making enemies worldwide by even going into war with religion. This is shameful
What does it have to do with the west? The church on this video become targetted because of russian invasion. Russia should be blamed for this. They invade ukraine for ‘russification’. This means like in history in 17th century when russia under catherine the great annexed ukraine by signing treaty of andrusovo with poland without participation from ukraine.

The Jews Torah wars is now in Russia after done in Somalia Sudan Libya Syria Iraqi Afghanistan Yemen. The Jews Torah wars have killed and caused migration of millions of innocent people.
The Torah Jews wars comes to effect after the Zionist apartheid regime totally occupied the land of canaanites Palestine land and the need to protect Jerusalem from the invasion as put in the Torah from these countries.
YouTube for details on Ezekiel prophecies 38.
According to Jews the law was written by Azar in Quran Uzair God made him slept for hundred years awaiting the building of Jerusalem after the first destruction by Nebuchadnezzar and Jews were taken to Babylon. Azar rewrote the Torah for he had memorized it and Jews claim he also wrote the Ezekiel prophecies
The Jerusalem was built by the parsian king khorsh some time 300 BC.
Religious institutions with close links to Russia (like The Orthodox Church under Moscow jurisdiction) are simply The Fifth Columne within Ukraine, which works to the adventage of Russia. And as such it should be immedaitely banned in Ukraine and their properties and assets should be confiscated by The Ukrainian State and donated to the religious institutions of Ukrainian origin like The Orthodox Church under Kijiv jurisdiction. Slava Ukraini! Slava Hierojam! Greetings from Poland!!!!
Glory and Long Live to Ukraine I know you will win this war as the good will win against the evil coming from the Philippines.
It’s better that Russia invades Ukraine now who knows what will the Anti-Russian regime do if it joins nato.
Zelensky asks more of. Dictator then Putin lol. No freedom of religion and can’t have opinions. If someone is pro Russia that’s their right

And Gay rights are more important then you can imagine. God is Dead
Islam and Christianity are a joke . Support Gay Rights or die you choose

The west is “determined” to weaken the church. Ukrainian christians will, eventually, undertand it.

Yup religious persecution. America must be proud
@Diggnuts rigjt. You like religious persecution. Be proud of it. Your side is aiding n*zis. I onvioualy sont think you are on the side of religious freedom. And this comes.feom an atheist. I dont ñike religion one bit. But i don like persecutions either. This is exactly why those ppl 9n the donbass amd crimea want out of ukraine
@Daniel Darío Canales Gámez Time to mute the orc loving idiot..
@Diggnuts yup. exactly what ppl say when they run out of “arguments”. keep embracing religious persecution, and showing the world that there is a reason aemrica is supporting the azov batallion, and right sector. all admirers of stepan bandera
@Diggnuts talk like that is how genocides start! & did you know the Ukrainian Orthodox Church broke away from Russia more than 3 years ago? Good job hitler
@Haäkin Not really. Talk like “This country/people do not really exist or these people are impure and need to be controlled or killed” is how genocide starts.
You know who said those things recently? That was pootin!
The report conveniently left out Patriarch Kirill of Moscow, the head of the Russian Orthodox Church and top supporter of Putinstani terror in Ukraine.
Prayer is such a subversive activity . Shame on the Ukraine for this
May St John XXIII and St John Paul II, together with St Andrew, St George, Isaiah and St Catherine of Alexandria, intercede with the Almighty for the removal of Putin, Lavrov, Shoigu, Kirill and their minions from power and a just peace for Ukraine. May St Michael and all the angels protect Ukrainian skies and may Our Lady of Zarvanytsia help all Ukrainians who are mourning loved ones.
Ukraine has just denounced and banned their own Church. Ukraine is completely under the control of satanists right now, how about a prayer to rid Ukraine of the evil that has now engulfed it?
People should bow down with those who bow down and praise the One God ameen✅is better for them than killing each other.
The church is full of Russian agents lol
So after jailing the political opposition party total. censorship of all nedia foreign and domestic. Harassing church goers for claims of anti-ukrainan activities. I been telling people all along this is a comedian who on a Ukrainian TV channel playing the president of ukraina in a night time series “servant of the people. Now he no longer asks for continued funding; he actually demands it. He
has professional production company pumping out tons of misinformed and propaganda. A lot of people are mental slaves to the uun the un united nations UN does studies on corruption. In European corruption Ukrainian leads number one corrupt country in Europe The Russian Federation is huge and spans eurp/Asia it 1 position of corruption.
President V. Putin and lil zelensky are 1 and 2
you right about all but not about Putin and Russia
Religion is a scam anyways
The Ukrainian Orthodox Church should say it plainly: as long as the Russian Orthodox Church is on the side of Putin, there is no hope for the Russians supporting Putin in Eternal life.
Whoever strays from GOD ‘s Commandments does not have any hope of reaching Eternal life. Even religious leaders are governed by these rules.
So you now want to make this a religious war?? Arent you guys in the middle of a cruzade launched by president pass me a beer??
@Daniel Darío Canales Gámez when we don’t know what we are talking about, it is better not to say a thing.
@E.G. Karam you would do well to follow your own advise
@Daniel Darío Canales Gámez it seems that you have not understood my reply. You are of such a young age that you don’t understand that people might have ME names without being ME. One thing my family haven’t abandoned is our Bible & Religion. From your name, you could be a Spaniard, a South American, a Central American, a North American, an Australian, a New Zealander, an African, or from somewhere else. One thing you are not is a True Christian that understands the Christian Bible, and specially Revelation. The YouTube message talks about two Christian denominations. Since you are not a Christian, you have no understanding of this subject matter.
@E.G. Karam how old domyou think i am??
And, please, keep telling me how taiding religious temples is a good thing. Thise nazis on ukraine’s side will surely love to hear that rationalization.
It is not worthy to show favor to the godless, to crush the just in court.
Scary CULT 😥
I believe you’ll find the Alphabet Mafia to be the true “Scary CULT.”
Zelensky the anti-Christ
Ukraine is moving into a wrong direction!
Russia will going to collapse soon just like the 1990’s you gave already forgotten hahaha.
@Paolo Santiago you are wrong
I don’t support both the Russian and Ukrainian Orthodox churches. They’re aggressive radical religious organizations with their attitudes towards homosexuality or being born out of marriage. These fanatic churches are still in the Middle Ages.
funny, you are not a believer, God forbade homosexuality. In ancient times, believers were required to kill for this sin. Soon you will see which country is with God, the saints said that after the world war, the destroyed Europe will accept Orthodox Christianity, and Catholicism will disappear.
This is false information Ukraine already had a Ukranian Orthodox church before this new one was illegally created in 2014
In God We Trust.
