Korchynsky himself reporrted this on his Facebook page.

"A prayer meeting of the Brotherhood in the Lavra, during which our fighters were awarded medals from the Ministry of Defense for their participation in the recent battles," Korchynsky wrote.

Earlier, Dmytro Korchynsky had publicly called for the destruction of temples of the Ukrainian Orthodox Church. As reported by the UOJ, Korchynsky recommended entering UOC churches and, if Moscow books or icons were found there, they should be burnt, "preferably together with the churches". He argued that such actions were justified, referring to UOC churches as "chicken coops".
