Archpriest Vasyl Dukach, a cleric of the Shepetivka Eparchy of the Ukrainian Orthodox Church (UOC), has been mobilized and assigned to the 31st Separate Mechanized Brigade. To prevent him from having to take up arms, believers are organizing support to provide him with an alternative service as a driver for the unit's needs.
A fundraising campaign has been launched for this purpose.
"If we all contribute together, a cargo-passenger minibus will be purchased, the priest will take the wheel, and he won’t have to participate in combat with a weapon," the appeal states.
