Ivano-Frankivsk authorities require the UOC church immediately vacate the premises
In case the requirements of the local authorities are not fulfilled on time, the officials threaten with a lawsuit on forced vacation of the leased premises.
The religious community of the UOC managed to secure a lease agreement in 1992 through a hunger strike, which the faithful kept for 51 days.
The legal department of the Ivano-Frankivsk eparchy of the Ukrainian Orthodox Church has prepared a cassation appeal to international legal authorities. If the city officials deprive the community of the church, there will be only one church left for the four registered religious communities of the UOC in Ivano-Frankivsk.
The UOJ continues to monitor the developments closely.
