[The Ukrainians] murdered 2 Poles: the Koszów couple. And: „The first sotnya of the Ukrainian Insurgent Army appeared in this area in the summer of 1944. It was then that two farmers, suspected of having a reluctant attitude towards Ukrainians, were led out to the forest. Their traces were lost until after some time their massacred body was found”.

In the town of Cisna, Lesko district (Bieszczady), the UPA murdered 13 Poles: 4‑person Macieszek family was burnt alive (mother and her children: 19‑year‑old Ania, 16‑year‑old Jadzia and 10‑year‑old Zbyszek), 4‑person Jędrzejczak family (mother and three children, the oldest of whom was 10‑year‑old), 3 pre‑war policemen (they cut off the skin of their necks and hands with knives, cut off their tongues, noses and genitals, and threw their bodies into the fire) and the wife of one of the policemen, they also shot 1 policeman who was at home. The policemen who were at the station successfully defended themselves for ten hours of fighting, but then next day evacuated to Baligród.
„Cisna in the night of January 11/12, 1946  […] was attacked by the UPA sotnya of Volodymyr Hoszka 'Myron', reinforced by the chota [platoon] of Vasyl Stupka's 'Tarasek' and OUN SB militias — intra–regional of Yuri Stelma 'Shuhaj' and regional of NN 'Bukowy'. The joint action of BSB with the UPA sotnya was personally coordinated by the regional SB‑OUN clerk, Modest Ripećkyj 'Horyslav'  […]
Modest Ripećki 'Horysław', a regional clerk of the SB‑OUN in the 'Beskyd' district, should be considered the commander of the entire operation. Modest Ripećkyj (Модест Ріпецький) fled to Germany in 1947. There, in addition to continuing his criminal activities in the SB‑OUN, he defended his doctoral dissertation 'The influence of organic hydrolysates on the tolerance of x–rays in rats'. He worked as a doctor in the USA, he had sons Andriy and Yuri. He initiated and edited the end of his life the doctored truth about the UPA crimes in 'Litopysy UPA'. Died on June 28, 2004. Children burnt alive and stabbed police officers burden his conscience. Since he has never repented, he has not confessed the truth, and his descendants are proud of the 'hero' accomplishments — he must have received his award — in hell.
A participant in the murder in Cisna, Fedir (Teodor) Stołycia, a member of the SB‑OUN 'Bukowy' militia, died in Poland, and served only a few years in prison for his crimes, because he managed to hide his affiliation with the SB‑OUN. He personally set fire to houses where women and children would burn alive”.

„Sotnya Myrona organized an action in Cisna, in which BSB [militia group of UPA Security Services] of the district and II region also took part. The task was to destroy Polish civil militia MO post and burn all official buildings. The BSB was to take all documents from the MO, arrest several militiamen and people suspected of cooperation with the NKVD and MO who were hiding under the side of the MO. Due to the fact that the sotnya did not capture MO post, because it was heavily entrenched and managed to place a heavy fire from the bunkers, the BSB fulfilled its task only partially: it eliminated Kozinczak Jurek from Buk, who was hiding in Cisna, took his rifle, burned 5 official buildings, stole two bikes, searched the house of Jacyniak Mykola suspected of informing, where 2 rifles were found (the suspect was not in the hut) and arrested a woman suspected of cooperation with the NKVD. Sotnya lost one killed and two wounded in action. The action lasted from 11 p.m. to 2 a.m  […] On the night of 13 / 14 6 plus one members of BSB, taking with them one chota [squadron] of Myron's sotnya, burnt down the rest of the official buildings in Cisna, which still remained, as well as the MO station. The BSB then burned down 7 buildings and arrested Yatsenyuk Mykola, who escaped capture during the first attempt”.
