Representatives of religious communities of the Suzhansky district and Suzha in the Ukraine-controlled territory of the Kursk region (RF) were given the property of five Orthodox churches for safekeeping.

This was reported to Ukrinform by Colonel Oleksii Dmytrashkivskyi, a spokesman for the military commandant's office in the Kursk region.

According to him, the transfer of property was accompanied by representatives of the military commandant's office in the Russian Federation.

“Konstantin Zavyalov, a novice of one of the monasteries in the Kursk region, accepted the most valuable church relics of the churches for safekeeping against signature. The transfer process took place in the presence of representatives of the community of Sudzha,” noted Dmytrashkivskyi.

He emphasized that despite the constant shelling and threats, Ukrainian soldiers are helping to preserve Orthodox values in the Kursk region.
