A golden cross partially collapsed on the dome of one of the churches on the territory of the Kiev Pechersk Lavra, the State Emergency Service of Ukraine (SES) reported on Facebook (owned by Meta, recognized as extremist in Russia and banned).
"Upon arrival, rescuers found that a cross partially collapsed on the dome of one of the churches. To safely dismantle the structure, rescuers used a wheeled elevator," the report says. The cross was lowered to the ground. 
According to RBC-Ukraine, we are talking about the cross on the Church of All Saints above the Economic Gate. It was built in the 17th century.
Earlier, the Ministry of Culture of Ukraine created a commission to check the relics of saints in the caves of the Kiev Pechersk Lavra, which by the end of May should check the "presence of remains of saints" in the tombs of the Near and Far caves of the Kiev Pechersk Lavra Reserve, as well as "determine [their] historical and scientific value."
The Kiev authorities have consistently ousted the canonical Ukrainian Orthodox Church (UOC) from the Kiev Pechersk Lavra. In March 2023, the Kiev Pechersk Lavra Museum-Reserve terminated the lease agreement with the canonical church. In early July, the commission of the Ministry of Culture of Ukraine came to the lavra, changed the locks and sealed the buildings. In August of the same year, the court recognized the termination of the lease and the claims of the authorities to the monastery's property as legitimate. After that, the entrance to the Lower Lavra was closed to visitors and students and staff of the Kiev Theological Academy and Seminary were forbidden to stay on the territory of the lavra. The so-called Orthodox Church of Ukraine (OCU) has begun holding festive services in the main church of the lavra, the Assumption Cathedral.
The course of ousting and banning the UOC began to be pursued by Ukrainian President Petro Poroshenko. On September 23, 2024, the law banning the canonical church came into force in Ukraine.
