Information has been received that Russian troops are preparing an air strike on the most important shrine of the Ukrainian people since the times of Kyiv Rus - Saint Sophia Cathedral in Kiev.
His Beatitude Sviatoslav, the Head and Father of the UGCC appeals to all Christians to pray for the spiritual sanctuary of the Slavic peoples and urges the aggressor to refrain from this most horrific act of vandalism. "May Saint Sophia - the Wisdom of God, dissuade those who planned to commit this crime," - His Beatitude Sviatoslav.
