A Ukrainian court ordered a leading Orthodox priest who is accused by authorities of condoning Russia's invasion to be put under house arrest on Saturday.
Metropolitan Pavel, the abbot of the Kyiv-Pechersk Lavra monastery, Ukraine's most revered Orthodox site, has denied the charges. A hearing Saturday had been adjourned until Monday after the priest said he was feeling unwell.
