The Russian invaders bombed the St. George Skete of the Holy Dormition Svyatogorsk Lavra of the Moscow Patriarchate in the Donetsk region with a well-aimed strike.

This is reported by Ukrayinska Pravda citing the officer of the 95th separate Airborne Assault Brigade of the armed forces of Ukraine, Yuriy Kochevenko.

"With a well-aimed strike, the Russians completely destroyed the St. George Skete of the Holy Dormition Svyatogorsk Lavra of the Moscow Patriarchate.
Ruin and death are the only things that the Russian World can bring, even to those who were awaiting it. Such a pity, it was a beautiful temple,” Kovechenko noted.
