"A noble cause". Funds collected to buy vehicles for the Russian army
In what was touted as a noble initiative, the St. Elizabeth Monastery in Minsk has been raising funds to purchase vehicles for the Russian army. The beneficiaries of this fund collection, however, aren't the homeless, orphans, or the needy. Instead, the funds are meant for those who aggressively invaded Ukraine two years ago. Their goal is to acquire eleven new vehicles for the world's "second largest army".

Despite being the "second largest army," they lack sufficient off-road vehicles. In times of war, when equipment and personnel are lost in large numbers, the solution seems to be to turn to well-meaning individuals for help, preferably those associated with religious institutions. This is precisely what the Russian army did.
The St. Elizabeth Monastery in Minsk stepped in to aid the occupiers and soldiers, a female monastery infiltrated by agents from Belarus and Russia. The nuns, in their astonishing practices, raised funds for what they deem a "noble cause"- supporting the Russian military.
This is clearly visible since the beginning of the war in Ukraine, a conflict that has been ongoing for nearly two years.
Officials from Alexander Lukashenko's regime make themselves comfortable at the St. Elizabeth Monastery, which reciprocates this support by reinforcing Belarusian propaganda in support of the dictatorship and its Russian allies.
The nuns have backed the aggressors who invaded Ukraine and targeted innocent civilians for several months. They proudly exhibit the widely despised "Z" symbol in Kyiv, proliferate Kremlin propaganda, and have launched a fundraising drive for a "noble cause". It appears this drive is meant to boost the world's "second largest army" capabilities.
With the raised funds, the nuns were able to purchase eleven off-road vehicles for the Russian army.
Vladimir Putin's army continuously loses personnel and equipment, a problem they have faced since the early weeks of the war. The off-road vehicles, purchased by the Belarusian nuns, will certainly serve a purpose on the battlefield, as a considerable amount of existing vehicles are outdated and dilapidated.
Unfortunately, the Belarusian populace, under Russian influence, seems to be supporting the aggressors.
According to reports, the St. Elizabeth Monastery is controlled by the FSB and has hosted several political events in recent years, including discussions about the January Uprising, labeled as a "rebellion" against Russian power.
The nuns at the monastery fervently support Vladimir Putin and previous Soviet Union leaders. The monastic community evidently yearns for the days when the church was closely monitored by Joseph Stalin's officials and their successors...
