Anthem rings out from ruined Kyiv Pechersk Lavra
Government
The Ukrainian national anthem rings out from the Great Lavra Bell Tower on June 15, hours after a Russian drone strike severely damaged the historic Kyiv-Pechersk Lavra. The massive overnight attack targeted the 11th-century UNESCO World Heritage site, sparking a major fire on the roof of the sacred Dormition Cathedral. As rescuers cleared the smoldering debris in the morning sun, the monastery’s bells played the anthem over the capital. Video: Archpriest Oleksandr Tsisar / Facebook.
