But in the present Ukraine-related events church means little. The
Russia's humanitarian aid in the areas like Kherson is distributed
without any links to any religion. It would be silly to believe a
priest in "a video telling residents to accept Russian aid" might
be so important. The one more WSJ article is just one more nonsense
intended for ignorant readers who have no idea about real life.

2018 as a condition for recognition of it by the Ecumenical Patriarchate
of Constantinople and was granted the tomos of autocephaly (decree of ecclesial independence) by the Ecumenical Patriarchate of Constantinople
in Istanbul on 5 January 2019.
It merged into the Orthodox Church of Ukraine in 2018. In 2019, […]
After its unilateral declaration of autocephaly in 1992, the
patriarchate was not recognised by the other Eastern Orthodox
churches, and was considered a "schismatic group" by the Moscow Patriarchate.[2][3]

"Ukraine: Ukrainian fighting tactics endanger civilians
Ukrainian forces have put civilians in harm's way by establishing bases and operating weapons systems in populated residential areas, including in schools and hospitals, as they repelled the Russian invasion that began in February, Amnesty International said today.
Such tactics violate international humanitarian law and endanger civilians, as they turn civilian objects into military targets. The ensuing Russian strikes in populated areas have killed civilians and destroyed civilian infrastructure.
"We have documented a pattern of Ukrainian forces putting civilians at risk and violating the laws of war when they operate in populated areas," said Agns Callamard, Amnesty International's Secretary General.

aren't really so. They still make things less primitive, nevertheless.
