Ukrainian art critic Konstantyn Akinsha is confident that a strike on the building of the Security Service of Ukraine in Kyiv will destroy St. Sophia.

He said this in an interview with DW, according to UNIAN.

"The Russian command announced that it will destroy all buildings related to the activities of the SBU – the Security Service of Ukraine. The problem is that the SBU headquarters is located just a few meters from St. Sophia Cathedral and any blow to the SBU will lead to damage to the church. This has not happened yet, but what we see around us is terrifying," he said.

Akinsha reminded that as a result of the shelling in the center of Kharkiv the Holy Dormition Cathedral was damaged.
