Head of the UOC MP leaves the Lavra amid shouts of 'Exchange Onufriy' - фото 1
On Saturday, May 6, the head of the UOC-MP, Onuphry, held a service at the Kyiv-Pechersk Lavra.

This was reported by UNIAN.

When Metropolitan Onuphry was leaving the territory of the temple, together with his entourage, activists were already waiting for him. In a video published by activist Andriy Smoliy, one can see the first hierarch getting into a car amid shouts from the crowd of "Onuphry to the nares" and "Onuphry for exchange". Those accompanying him pushed the people away from the Metropolitan near the Lavra.

The UOC-MP called it a "provocation" by "participants of an illegal rally". Police were present at the site of the protest.
