The case against Patriarch of the Russian Orthodox Church Kirill
Ukraine has announced suspicion of the head of the Russian Orthodox Church, Vladimir Gundyaev, known as Patriarch Kirill, for his “blessing” to kill Ukrainians.
According to the investigation, he is part of the inner circle of Russia’s top military-political leadership and was one of the first to publicly support a full-scale war against Ukraine.
It is noted that to spread propaganda, Gundyaev massively uses the religious communities of the Russian Orthodox Church under his control on the territory of the Russian Federation, as well as representatives of the UOC (Moscow Patriarchate) in Ukraine. The SBU notes that Patriarch Kirill regularly disseminates Kremlin narratives in the form of online sermons or his own video comments.
