What a country! Russia is destroying all non-Russian Orthodox churches in Russian controlled Ukraine.

.....
Religious freedom is under attack in Ukraine. Not from Ukrainian lawmakers, as some critics have falsely alleged, but from actual Russian soldiers.
A forgotten element of Russia’s war on Ukraine is its calculated destruction of churches and religious sites, part of Russian President Vladimir Putin’s physical and spiritual assault against the Ukrainian people.
....
This combination was most recently seen in late March, when the World Russian People’s Council adopted a statement overseen by Patriarch Kirill of Moscow. It described Russia’s invasion of Ukraine as a “holy war” and declared that “the entire territory of present-day Ukraine should be included in the area of Russia’s exclusive influence.”

I think the Ukrainian Orthodox Church is the one affiliated with a Russian head of church. There’s a different one that is actually Ukrainian-centered. I think.

But I could be wrong. JUst recalling that a Russia-headed church faction exists in Ukraine and there was a split kerfluffle.

Because they were "subsidiaries" of russian orthodox church.
And they did not simply ban them, they stole their property and gave it to illegal until recently Kiev branch of Ukrainian orthodox church.

Yes.

Basically ukrainian church was part of Russian one, that has been the arrangement since forever. With proxy war US started on Russia in Ukraine in 2014 that was weird so State Department decided that they will get Ukrainian church independent of Russian one. So they went the main orthodox guy in Constantinople and told him to make it happen. So he did. Russian Church did not agree with this. I for obvious reasons don't care that much, but there were a lot kicking and screaming during that divorce.

No, CIA dumped Russian Orthodox Church. If I remember correctly CIA chief literally met with that guy in Constantinople.
In reality people were pissed off when the church where they coming for ages was suddenly raided and closed. As I said, lots of kicking and screaming.
People who were for closing russian churches were not even christians.
And it was logical thing to do for CIA, anything connected to Russia must be expelled, I understand the logic.

CIA had nothing to do with Ukraine being pissed at the Russian Orthodox church that supported Pootie's invasion 110%. A religious fifth column in the heart of Ukraine.

I looked it up and you are correct about the ban. Nations at war generally do not care for traitorous organizations.
