Ukrainian believers from the Ukrainian Orthodox Church of Moscow Patriarchate march near the town of Boryspil, Kiev region, Ukraine, 25 July 2016. Ukrainian activists gathered on 25 July at the entry to the town of Boryspil in Kiev region to prevent those participating in the religious march of the Ukrainian Orthodox Church of the Moscow Patriarchate from entering the city of Kiev. The activists were holding Ukraine's national flag and the red and black banners of the Organization of Ukrainian Nationalists (OUN), as local media reported. In early July, the so-called Religious Procession for Peace, organized by the Ukrainian Orthodox Church of the Moscow Patriarchate, set out from Ternopil and Donetsk. The marchers planned to arrive in Kiev by the end of July and pass through Kiev's center on 27 July. Orthodox believers will mark the 1028th anniversary of Kievan Rus Christianization on 28 July.
