The building burned inside and out. According to law enforcement officers who arrived at the scene, the cause was arson.
There are no reports of casualties.
Recall that in August, President Vladimir Zelensky signed a law allowing the canonical Ukrainian Orthodox Church to be banned in the country.
Later, in the village of Priyutovka in the Kirovograd region, a group of camouflaged attackers cut the locks and broke into the church of St. George the Victorious of the canonical UOC. The invaders locked themselves in and refused to admit parishioners and clergy to the temple. The police sided with the attackers.
