This was reported by the press service of the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine.
Reportedly, theoretical classes are held in St. Michael's Golden-Domed Monastery, and practical classes are held on Trukhanov Island in the capital.
Dissenter priests are taught subjects that relate to the specifics of being in a combat zone. In particular, the rules of behavior with the local population, the role of the clergy in civil-military relations in a combat zone, the basics of psychological and psychiatric assistance in the field, “historical analogies of Russian aggression,” etc.
Representatives of the clergy are also studying the regulatory framework for the service of military clergy in the Armed Forces of Ukraine, in particular the Code of Military Priests. In addition, they will study ways to develop self-regulation and self-healing skills among personnel, providing primary psychological assistance after combat, social protection of participants in war and combat operations.
This time, for the first time before the rotation, the clergy of Filaret’s “church” will be able to live in camp conditions on Trukhanov Island. The first group is leaving for the ATO zone soon.
According to the rules established by the Holy Synod of the “Kyiv Patriarchate,” priests must spend a month in the ATO zone, and three months in those places where they constantly conduct services.
