What is happening today in our country, some historians have called a miracle on the Dnieper. Just like the miracle on the Vistula almost a hundred years ago, when the Polish army stopped the invasion of the Red Horde and defended independence, the right to the existence of a revived Polish state.
His Beatitude Sviatoslav, Father and Head of the UGCC, said this in his daily military video address on the thirteenth day of the war.
"Today, that miracle over the Dnieper is created by our Ukrainian army, stopping the invasion of the northern neighbor, who stepped on our land, bringing destruction and death, trying to destroy the freedom-loving Ukrainian people," - said the Primate.
