There was an explosion today in the building of a Ukrainian Orthodox Church in Zaporizhia. One of the ministers of the church reported this to a correspondent of ReporterUA.

"There was a package at the door to the church, no one paid attention to it and it exploded," said the priest. One of the believers was badly injured and taken to hospital.

The blast of the explosion blew up half of the church from inside.

The TV channel 1+1 refers to the police to report that the explosive was laid at the door to the church. The blast occurred during a service injuring nine people. One person is in intensive care and another one in a very severe condition.
