Paint thrown at Holy Matrona icon, on which Joseph Stalin is depicted

In the Holy Trinity Cathedral, paint was splashed onto the icon of the Holy Matrona, on which Joseph Stalin is depicted.

Before that, civil activist Nata Peradze posted video material on her Facebook page, where it can be seen that paint is splashed onto the icon of the Holy Matrona, on which Joseph Stalin is depicted.

It is not yet known how the Patriarchate reacted to the incident.

For information, the news of the placement of the icon of the Holy Matrona in the Holy Trinity Cathedral, on which Joseph Stalin is depicted, was spread on social media on January 6.

A scandal is growing in Georgia over an icon discovered in Tbilisi’s main cathedral, Sameba, which, together with Russian Saint Matrona of Moscow, depicts Soviet dictator Joseph Stalin, who ordered the extermination of tens of millions of people in the 1930s and 1940s.
