In the Chernivtsi region, priests of the Moscow Patriarchate were prohibited from conducting a funeral service for the body of a fallen soldier in a church. After this, believers of the OCU in the village of Zadubrivka, Chernivtsi region, entered the church following a confrontation with the UOC-MP. According to interviews with representatives of the OCU conducted by Suspilne journalists, they entered the church by force after being denied access.

The OCU supporters stormed the church and drove out the Moscow clergy who had refused to allow a funeral service for the deceased hero.
