Imagine arriving at your local church on Sunday to find the doors locked, and the minister facing persecution and even imprisonment if he holds a service. This shocking scenario is happening right now—in Ukraine.

“Despite receiving billions in aid from the West, the Ukrainian government is persecuting members of the Ukrainian Orthodox Church, seizing and closing churches, and imprisoning clergy on trumped-up charges and false claims of collusion with the enemy. This authoritarian behavior must stop immediately.”

Lawyer Robert Amsterdam

Our goal is to bring the truth to the global community about the fate of thousands of people who are currently held—either in official Ukrainian detention facilities or in illegal places of confinement—due to their views and opinions, their efforts to sustain life in Russian-occupied territories under international humanitarian law, or as a result of provocative actions by Ukrainian security services.
