Evangelical Focus puts the lie to those quislings spewing Kremlin propaganda to accuse the Ukrainian government of practicing religious discrimination (as in Ukraine’s policy to quarantine the subversive deeds of Kremlin’s puppet Russian Orthodox Church). The Kremlin, not Kyiv, is the persecutor.
Russia has destroyed over 200 Evangelical churches in Ukraine and damaged 400+ more houses of worship. Excerpt:
Christian organisation Mission Eurasia, along with the Institute for Religious Freedom (IRF) of Ukraine, recently launched the Faith under fire report, on the situation of religious freedom in the country amidst the war with Russia.
The report “highlights a dire situation that demands immediate global attention and action”, and documents it, “providing hard-hitting evidence of the devastation wrought over the past 21 months”.
It reveals “a shocking reality where religious communities and affiliated structures are systematically targeted, seized, and destroyed while religious freedoms are severely restricted, all exacerbated by the ongoing brutal war”, point out the authors. According to the report, at least 630 places of worship have been destroyed or damaged, including over 600 Christian churches, of which 206 were evangelical.
Glory to Ukraine!
