According to local journalists, those who broke through the fence were singing in a non-Ukrainian language while approaching the temple. The police stood at the entrance, and various objects were thrown at them. As a result, the doors of the temple were damaged, and supporters of the UOC MP are trying to prevent the Ukrainian-language worship service in this temple.
