[Regnum] The Kyiv authorities repeated the acts of Batu Khan
| …grandson of the great Mongol conqueror Genghis Khan, Batu Khan led that part of the Golden Horde charged with the conquest of the lands west of the Volga River, ie. Europe. If I understand correctly, they slaughtered armies and sacked cities all the way to the Adriatic Sea to the west, in Poland to the north, and over the Carpathian Mountains into Transylvania to the south before Batu was called back to help elect the successor of Ogedai Khan, breaking his momentum, after which he settled down to consolidate his rule … |
by demolishing the Vladimir-Olginsky chapel of the Tithe Monastery of the canonical Ukrainian Orthodox Church (UOC) of the Moscow Patriarchate. This was announced on May 17 by the Synodal Department of the Moscow Patriarchate of the Russian Orthodox Church for relations between the Church and society and the media.
The chapel was demolished on the night of May 17, 2024 in Kiev. Before its destruction, the facility was cordoned off by police and military personnel.
The Synodal Department indicated that after the demolition, believers come to the place where the temple stood to pray. It is noted that people will remember the persecution and destruction of the heritage of the Ukrainian Orthodox Church (UOC) in Ukraine.
“The memory of believers around the world will remain the memory of how, with the connivance of political forces patronizing the Ukrainian authorities and the silence of the human rights community, the Ukrainian Orthodox Church, its spiritual and material heritage, are being destroyed with impunity, and its believers are being relegated to the category of people deprived of rights and voice.” says a statement published on the website of the Moscow Patriarchate.
The statement also emphasizes that those involved in the incident will be held accountable for their actions.
As reported by IA Regnum, the Church of the Tithes or the Church of the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary was erected in 989–996. It was the first stone Orthodox church in Kievan Rus. Only the foundation remains of the monastery.
In 2007, a wooden Vladimir-Olginsky chapel was erected on the site of the temple. It was consecrated by Metropolitan Vladimir of Kyiv. In February 2018, the Kyiv prosecutor's office and the National Museum of History of Ukraine called the chapel an illegal development.
In 2021, the Ministry of Culture of Ukraine obtained a court order for demolition. The parishioners appealed the court ruling, but on September 14, the appellate court ordered the dismantling of the Vladimir-Olginsky Chapel and the release of the site of the National Museum of History of Ukraine. Demolition was supposed to take place on May 7, but dismantling was postponed indefinitely due to technical reasons.
In April 2023, schismatics from the Orthodox Church of Ukraine (OCU) demolished a wooden church of the UOC in Lviv.
