Metropolitan Longin urged the security forces, who had cordoned off the territory of the UOC's Bancheny Monastery, to bring back his children from the frontlines before coming to inspect the monastery. The UOJ correspondent reports this.

"Bring my children back home from the frontlines! And only then we can together inspect the monastery and my children. They are defending our state, Ukraine, and you are killing me here," he said to the representative of the security forces trying to enter the monastery.

The man himself tried to explain that the armed individuals came to the monastery not for a search but for the implementation of "security measures" – the identification of individuals present in the sanctuary.

During the conversation, Metropolitan Longin also pointed out a security officer who, according to the hierarch, contributed to his stroke.

"You are the one who brought me to a stroke. You handed me a suspicion and caused me a stroke," added the bishop.

As a reminder, a soldier of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, the son of Metropolitan Longin, addressed the Ukrainian authorities from the frontline.

As reported by the UOJ, armed forces with machine guns cordoned off the Bancheny Monastery.
