In his daily address, Major Archbishop Sviatoslav Shevchuk, the head of the Ukrainian Greek Catholic Church, said on April 28 that over a million Ukrainians, 200,000 of them children, have been expelled or deported by Russian forces.

“People expelled from their land, children who are deprived of their land inheritance, become strangers, exiles on that land.” said Major Archbishop Shevchuk. “But the Lord God says: ‘Blessed are the meek, for they shall inherit the earth.’”
