Ukraine’s parliament speaker signs bill banning Russian-linked religious organizations
The law will empower authorities to scrutinize and potentially disband any religious entity found to be collaborating with Russia.
The Security Service of Ukraine found Russian propaganda manuals, warehouses with pro-Kremlin literature, and "Hero of Russia" certificates on the territory of the Chernivtsi-Bukovyna eparchy controlled by the Moscow Patriarchate during a counterintelligence raid.
According to the officers, representatives of the Russian Orthodox Church set tasks and gave instructions to the Ukrainian Orthodox Church of the Moscow Patriarchate as a part of a disinformation campaign aimed at sharing false facts about Ukraine and the Russian war.
Earlier, on 22 November, the Security Service of Ukraine conducted a raid on the territory of the Holy Dormition Kyiv-Pechersk Lavra in Kyiv in an effort to detain Kremlin agents and collaborators.
