On the night of April 29, in the village of Staraya Guta in the Podkarpackie Voivodship, unknown people attacked activists who were carrying out restoration work at the Ukrainian Greek Catholic cemetery.

This is reported by the Ukrainian weekly in Poland "Our word".

Volunteer and teacher, Dr. Olga Solyar, said that the attackers arrived at the old cemetery where the camp of the "Magurich" society camped and threatened its participants. Among other things, shouted: "Wyp. ac na Ukraine "(vulgarly -" Get out in Ukraine "), accused the camp participants of the restoration of the graves of the UPA.

On the call came the police and detained 5 people, all were drunk, notes the Left Bank.

The Association of Ukrainians in Poland (PMU) issued a statement in which it expresses the hope that the attackers of the members of the camp "Magurich" will be punished in accordance with the current legislation.

"The attack on the camp of the society" Magurich "in the village of Staraya Guta is considered a consequence of the manifestations of hostility and aggression towards everything Ukrainian that takes place in the environment of the far right. And also this is a consequence of the insufficient reaction of the authorities of the Republic of Poland to similar cases that occurred in Poland in recent years, "the statement says..

PMU reports that this year on June 3 in Peremyshl the traditional Pikulitsky church course will take place. Given the cases of aggression against Ukrainians and their activities, there are fears that during this event new provocations are planned, the statement says..
