general info
On August 18, 1944, Kupiak organized an ambush on the Lviv–Kiev road, between the villages of Angielówka and Wierzblany near Busko. The unit of the UPA „Wilczura” joined this ambush. They shot at there and dispersed a column of people mobilized to the Red Army. Four of them were arrested and shot on Kupiak's orders. During the operation, the bandits shot at a moving military truck, and killed Janina Kot, demobilized from the army, and the Czechoslovak soldier Wienczysław Mymra. They plundered their belongings and the bloodied money, after washing it of blood, was appropriated by Kupiak.
