The driver from St. Elizabeth's Monastery in Minsk, which supports Russia in the war, used to be an employee of the Belarusian KGB.

This was reported by the Хрысціянская візія TV channel.

According to sources from St. Elizabeth's Monastery, Dmitry Ivanovich Korbalevich, the driver who took the nuns Minodora (secular name: Tatiana Hvozd) and Nymphodora (secular name: Olga Karpovich) on trips to Western Europe, was previously an employee of the Belarusian KGB. This is confirmed by the bot "Voka Zvogara", created by the Cyber Partisans. The database used by the bot includes data of regular employees of Belarusian law enforcement agencies.

What are these trips like?

While speaking at the monastery's sisterhood meeting, Sr. Nymphodora mentioned that she and her colleague travel to Europe to promote Russian narratives and to communicate with Europeans who support Putin.

Sr. Alexandra (Lyakhova), who coordinates aid to the Russian military, emphasized that there are people in Germany helping the monastery buy necessary things, such as anti-burn medicines.

As RISU reported previously, the nuns of St. Elizabeth's Monastery set up business in Ireland: Sr. Helen Volynets and Sr. Veronica Vasilyeva came to the country to earn money for "their projects" by selling icons. St. Elizabeth's Monastery and its Archpriest, Andriy Lemeshonok, are known for their public support of Russia's aggressive war against Ukraine. They have repeatedly organized events in support of Russian aggression.
