People in a village near the Crimean city of Sevastapol are flocking to see two orthodox icons that are reportedly bleeding. The two icons were handed to the local church by the mother of a young man who participated in the Donbas conflict. Drops of blood reportedly started appearing on the icons when the young man was killed in combat. The bleeding of the icons has become even more pronounced over the past 4 months, with both icons nearly being covered in blood. The local priests characterized the phenomenon chilling and said the Orthodox faithful should prepare for more bloodshed.
