The Head of the UGCC: I wish to hug Maksym from Kryvyi Rih and his entire family

His Beatitude Sviatoslav said this in his traditional video address, the Information Department of the UGCC reports.

According to him, this week will probably be remembered by all Ukrainians for the great tragedy of the family of Maksym Kulyk in Kryvyi Rih. Almost the entire family was killed by a direct hit of a Russian missile into a high-rise building: mother Olena with three children - Kyryl, Demyd and two-month-old Ulianka. Only the father, Maksym, survived.

“I wish to hug Maksym,” said the head of the UGCC, ”and his entire family. This man said that with the death of his loved ones, his life seemed to have lost its meaning, but when he said goodbye to them, he blessed them. Maksym, today the whole of Ukraine is grieving and crying with you. Yet, at the same time, we hope for the resurrection and meeting with those whom we are now handing over to God.”
