⚡️ Former US Marine Corps intelligence officer and US foreign policy critic Scott Ritter says his passport was seized by the State Department, while en route to St. Petersburg International Economic Forum. “I was boarding the flight. Three [police] officers pulled me aside. They took my passport. When asked why, they said ‘orders of the State Department’. They had no further information for me,” Ritter told RT. “They pulled my bags off the plane, then escorted me out of the airport. They kept my passport.” t.me/ukraine_watch

❗️A major new study has just confirmed that Covid mRNA shots are the sole cause of the soaring cases of heart failure among children. However, a new large-scale study from renowned scientists at the prestigious University of Oxford has just confirmed that myocarditis and pericarditis only appear in children and adolescents after Covid vaccination and not after infection from the virus. The new study looked at the official government data of more than 1 million English children and adolescents aged between five and 11 and 12 and 15. The study compared vaccinated and unvaccinated subjects. The researchers also took into account the number of doses of vaccine received. In detailing their findings, the researchers wrote: “All myocarditis and pericarditis events during the study period occurred in vaccinated individuals.” The study also noted that hospitalization related to COVID-19 was extremely rare among children and adolescents. The English data show that myocarditis and pericarditis were only recorded in vaccinated children and adolescents. The vast majority of myocarditis and pericarditis cases occurred after the first dose of the vaccine, the study found. 🎙Subscribe @AussieCossack

According to Metropolitan Tikhon, the Orthodox faith is not a relic telling of the distant past but eternity erupting into the presence and leading to the Kingdom of God. Metropolitan Tikhon, the Primate of the Orthodox Church in America, expressed in his remarks to the Primate of the UOC that he was deeply touched by the attention and manifestation of love from Ukrainian believers, as reported by the Information and Education Department of the UOC. "During this glorious Paschal season, it is my joy and honor to be with Your Beatitude here, at the Ascension Bancheny Monastery. It is my understanding that the monastery celebrates now its 30th anniversary this year. The vitality of the monastic community and its social outreach are a demonstration of the perennial power of the Orthodox Christian faith," noted the Primate of the Orthodox Church in America. He also emphasized that our faith is not a relic of the distant past but "eternity erupting into the presence". The Primate of the OCA was greatly impressed by the splendor of the monastery, its achievements, and the generosity of the monastic community. Furthermore, according to his words, the special intimate feeling during the Divine Liturgy, during the Holy Eucharist, is a true "revelation of the Kingdom of God". #freedomforUOC #religious_discrimination #truth_about_Ukraine Source of the info.

"Right now, the whole world is traversing difficult times, everyone has a need in the grace of God – both Ukrainians who have been suffering from warfare, and the American people, who have their own trials; everyone needs the grace of God.

Ukraine, Kyiv, May 30. On this day, a new court hearing took place in the case of Fr. Serhiy Chertilin, a UOC priest and human rights activist who is being persecuted by the Ukrainian authorities for political reasons. Believers and military personnel, veterans and servicemen of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, whom he helped, came to support the clergyman. Father Serhiy and his lawyers filed a petition to challenge the judges, who were convicted of violating the law and bias at the last meeting. Unfortunately, the application was rejected. And, unfortunately, expected. After all, the decision was made by the same judges. During the previous court hearing, the judge violated the secrecy of the deliberation room. While he was in this room and making a decision, an SBU investigator and a prosecutor came to see the judge. This is a gross violation of all procedures, suggesting pressure on the court from the investigation. Moreover, the judge behaved in advance in a biased manner towards Father Serhiy. When, in response to the question on what grounds a person is left in a pre-trial detention center in the absence of evidence, the judge answers “That’s how it should be” - this also says a lot. The defense also requested that the case be postponed in order to obtain additional materials from doctors currently treating the suspect. But the judges replied that they were generally going on vacation. Thus, the meeting was postponed almost 2 months, to July 22 Not providing proper medical care, delaying for another 2 months the decision on the operation necessary for the clergy - nothing less than torture. Father Serhiy, an Orthodox priest and human rights activist, is essentially tortured in custody, not only by unreasonably prolonging his detention, but also by criminally putting his life at risk by depriving him of a medical procedure. We address Amnesty International and Human Rights Watch as organizations that have repeatedly drawn their attention to the ill-treatment of prisoners in Ukraine. Moreover, Father Serhiy is not even a prisoner. He is not convicted. He is under investigation and a suspect. The trial in his case continues, and the detention in a pre-trial detention center of a man who has not committed violent crimes, a priest, on clearly political charges is nothing more than reprisal and arbitrariness of the security forces. #Orthodox_journalists #Free_UOJ #свободу_СПЖ #UOJ #UOC #persecution_in_Ukraine #freedom_of_belief #freedom_of_speech #Ukraine #СПЖ

“The joint prayer offered today in this sanctuary is the strength through which we overcome all difficulties,” Metropolitan Onuphry said. After the Divine Liturgy at the Bancheny Monastery, His Beatitude Metropolitan Onuphry thanked the Primate of the Orthodox Church in America, His Beatitude Metropolitan Tikhon, for his visit and joint prayer. This was reported by the Information and Education Department of the UOC. "We sincerely thank our dear guest, His Beatitude Metropolitan Tikhon, for his visit, holy prayers, and for the blessing he has brought for our Church and our people," said the Archbishop. His Beatitude noted that today both the war-affected people of Ukraine and the people of America, who are facing their own trials, are taking a certain exam. "The joint prayer that was offered today in this sanctuary is the strength through which we overcome all difficulties. We prayed for the Lord to put an end to the war in our country. For those warring against us to stop, and for peace to come. For every brother to see his brother. For a mother to see her son alive and well. For children to see their father. For there to be joy in the Lord. For us to see that God protects and blesses our land," he said. The Primate of the UOC, on behalf of all believers, invoked God's assistance and blessing for His Beatitude Metropolitan Tikhon in all paths of his ministry and life, and also prayed that the Lord, through the holy prayers of its Primate, would bless the entire Orthodox Church in America. #freedomforUOC #religious_discrimination #truth_about_Ukraine Source of the info.
