Death and funeral of Patriarch Volodymyr of Kyiv

1995 death and burial of a Ukrainian Eastern Orthodox patriarch

Patriarch Volodymyr Romaniuk of the Ukrainian Orthodox Church – Kyiv Patriarchate died on 14 July 1995. His funeral subsequently turned into a riot, popularly known as Black Tuesday, after members of the Berkut special police force attempted to prevent mourners from accessing Kyiv's St. Sophia Cathedral, with members of the far-right Ukrainian People's Self-Defence attacking members of the security forces.
