An additional batch of priests of the Russian Orthodox Church was sent to the temporarily occupied territories by the Moscow Patriarchate to "support" the wounded Russian military and to agitate them to return to the front.
According to Ukrinform, this was reported by the National Resistance Center in Telegram.
"The enemy sent a new batch of priests of the Russian Church to the temporarily occupied territories. Priests in the service of the FSB were formally sent to take care of hospitals and provide "support" to the wounded occupiers. Yet, in truth, they will be agitating Russian soldiers to return to the front line," the statement reads.
The NSC also noted that the ROC priests will hold services in churches for local residents, where they will agitate them to support the war and shift responsibility for it to the victim of aggression - Ukraine.
"Propaganda is a serious crime for which liability is provided," the National Resistance Center emphasized.
