In Syktyvkar, Orthodox youth held an action to paint over “satanic” symbols

On August 10, the Orthodox youth of Syktyvkar took to the streets of the city with brushes and cans of paint to paint over "satanic" symbols on fences, walls of houses and parapets, the republican newspaper Tribuna reports . As writer Grigory Spichak, one of the organizers of the action, stated, “the people of Syktyvkar are already tired of this ‘brutal muck’. If the fascist swastika is nevertheless destroyed from time to time, then no one in the city has yet reached the hands of anti-Christian symbols.”
