On May 3, 2025, the Ascension Church in the village of Novopavlivka, Dnipropetrovsk region, was destroyed by a Russian air bomb, according to the local news outlet Mezhivsky Meridian.
Only the walls of the church remain; the dome and roof were completely demolished.
The Ascension Church was built over 150 years ago. During the Soviet era, it was converted into a dairy factory. Around 15 years ago, it was restored and religious services resumed.
