We remember.

In March 1944, the Polish underground carried out a large-scale anti-Ukrainian operation, which went down in history under the name “Grubeshevo revolution”. Its initiator was the commandant of the Grubeshevskaya AK Marian Golembyovsky, later one of the most ardent supporters of Polish-Ukrainian cooperation, a participant in negotiations with the UPA.

The following is the text in the original language. On the 10th–11th, Polish fighters attacked the villages of Andriivka, Bereziv, Berest, Vereshyn, Laskiw, Malichi, Malkiv, Modryn, Myagke, Riplin, Sagrin, Strizhivets, Terebinets, Terebin,. Documents of the Ukrainian underground police show different numbers of dead. The Polish offensive was not separated by many days and lasted for many offensive years. The document entitled “List of the depletion of forces by Polish gangs in Hrubeshivshchyna” states that during the period from 10 January to 5 April 36 Ukrainian forces were reduced, 875 individuals were muzzled. Looking around at the birch tree? In the spring of 1944, it was stated that during the Polish bereznevyh actions, “about 2,000 Ukrainian villagers were killed, most of them women and children.”. The Ukrainian Additional Aid Committee compiled lists of those killed in the spring of 1944, and was able to identify 1,283 victims by name, killed between 10 Birth and 10 Grass..

Participant, AK lieutenant Stanislav Ksionzek? “Virva” thought about the spring action of 1944: “Our army was very well organized and planted. The front-line officers themselves told them. Our goal was to burn and destroy everything along the Bug and Solokiya, so that there would be no sign of a trace, because, as our one officer on the right said, “either stop fighting, or mobilize more troops and fight tooth for tooth,. Based on this planned action, we strongly thought to throw out the fliers, calling on the Ukrainians until the end."

And in truth, as can be seen from the numerical protocols recorded after these crooked steps, not only the participants of self-defense, but also women, children and old people who did not do anything against. Moreover, the documents clearly show that the attackers were committed to seizing civilians who were being intercepted and liquidating them..

We will provide one of the recorded subdivisions with a confirmation? Olga Shidlovskaya? about the impoverished village of Sagrin: “10 days. RUR 1944. early, almost 4 years old, I realized that the village was on fire and fireballs were shooting strongly. I took my children, Sofia, 9 years old, Maria, 3 years old, Anna, 6 years old and old dad, 69 years old, and disappeared into a completely destitute little fool. You can see from the tree what was going on around us. I saw how the Polish bandits were pranking the mobs, seeming: “It’s a good idea to prank, because here you might get killed.”. I was crying and chula as bandits attacked my co-worker, Maria Nosal. They hit her with three arrows. They wanted to throw Maria Nosal into the fire, but one of them said that she would burn like that.

Child Maria Nosal Evfrosina, 7 years old, sensing that her mother was already beaten, began to scream even more. Already in storage. The bandits went to the cache and ordered them to climb out of this chaos, cursing. There were three: Antonina Tymoshchuk, Evstachy Tymoshchuk and Lida Tymoshchuk. The bandits shot all of them. Later, their corpses were burned, and the pigs’ necks were weighed down. In whose cache there were 7 more individuals. The bandits punished the vilasity, but no one showed up. The bandits threw a grenade into the cache, which wounded two people.

The bandits had been going wild for the past hour and were saying to each other: “Star boys, you better start looking around in your boots and caches.”. After this we went out onto the road and looked closely at our little boy, but as if we didn’t bother anything. At that hour, apparently, some elder came before them and began to shout loudly before them: “Your mother is a whore, for sure, even if someone worked for you, finger and finger.”. " It's better to look at the foxes and caches" He ran up to the window of our house, hitting the window with his butt and shouting: “In Ukraine, in Ukraine! "

From them I got to know two of our colonists: Tutka and Bzdura. The stinks shouted for an hour: “beat and finger”. Tutka and Bzdura showed Yatsyuk’s cache. In this cache, 15 goals were scored. I was so surprised that the gang was killing people. Chula, as a 6-year-old boy asked for his mother to be killed, because his mother was already killed. Kazav: “My mother is not alive and I don’t want to live”.

A gang of small local guides. This party of bandits includes 7, small for the guides of 2 small Polish boys, one is 14, and the other is 12 years old. I felt like the gang gave these guys a good payment, only to show them the beasts. Offended by the Polish boys, they fought against Yatsyuk, the Ukrainian ruler. Father of the lads, Bilik Yan (I don’t know the names of the lads). These boys also showed Stelmashchuk’s monster, from which bandit they pulled out 9 people and killed. After that, they tied straw, stuffed it in the wool, and set it on fire.. There were still people at the place, but they might not have choked themselves. The Mali Biliks led bandits around the whole village and showed the riots"

At the Kholmskaya memorial, for the sake of the bishops, the world recognizes the particular cruelty of the AK soldiers and the Orthodox priests. \? read here? having come to the Orthodox ass, they first attack the Orthodox Church and scorch it, and at the same time they attack the Orthodox clergy, as in the last two years there are 22 martyrs in their ranks, of which there are 14 and 8 priests. The presence of a national religious official gave even greater distress to the Polish-Ukrainian settlement in the Kholm region (again, this was predicted by Wolin in 1943).

Obviously, the method of Polish operations was not the guilt of Ukrainians, but the creation of such minds, or the stench of yakomog swedishly deprived us of our loss. For which purpose the village's goals were burned, sometimes ostentatiously brutal killings were carried out. Participants in the crimes against the Ukrainian population were both soldiers of the Polish underground and civilian Poles.

The days of the spring of 1944 in the Kholmshchyna and suddenly after the summer of 1943 in Volina showed how bitter the confrontation between Ukrainians and Poles could be, how easily its participants would go to war atrocities for the sake of realization.

For example, the trees and trees of the Kholm region looked scary. The axis as described in sheet number 1 of his enmity with the former representative of the UCC in Lublin, Volodymyr Levitsky: “Ninya great losses of Grubeshivshchina from the Bug along Guchva - these are the very conflagrations of the recently rich. Today we can confirm that this will not end yet, because a terrible reprisal-massacre for the national character of these lands is coming." And to be honest, the struggle did not end in the wild.
