CWN Editor's Note: On March 9—the 14th day of the large-scale Russian invasion of Ukraine—Major Archbishop Sviatoslav Shevchuk, the head of the Ukrainian Greek Catholic Church, lamented Russian attacks on houses of worship and on civilians.

“Where there is war, where bombs are falling—in Kyiv, Kharkiv, Chernihiv, Sumy and Mykolayiv—we are trying to do everything, on the one hand, to save the civilians, and on the other, to deliver humanitarian aid, provide our people, those who need to be taken out of the war zone, with food, medicine,” he said.
