Dąbrowa

[The Ukrainians] stopped 5 escaping Poles and murdered them in the forest. Others: „Three kilometers from the center of the village of Kąty, behind a small forest, in a field called Dąbrowa, Józef Jasiński lived with his married son Albin. The buildings on this farm, like most in the area, were wooden. On April 30, 1943, in broad daylight, a band of Bandera followers seized the inhabited Dąbrowa. She forcibly drove the people working in the fields and the Polish inhabitants from Dąbrowa Waśkowiecka to Jasiński's house and set it on fire. 23 people were burned, including twelve small children. The Łopuszański family died there with four young children. We knew everyone who died there, except for one girl, whose name and where she came from, we have not been able to establish. All buildings burned down. The human imagination is unable to imagine the terrible despair and pain of mothers at the sight of their babies burning with them. The monstrous murder of the mother–infanticide cried out to God for vengeance. Well, these children and these people did wrong to these terrible people – bandits. What could they do to harm the self–imposed Ukraine they are building – the children of Łopuszański, Adaszyński, Kucharski and Jasiński. On Sunday, May 2, three carts from Kąty and a dozen or so armed men went to the site of the fire. The picture was terrible. There was nothing else but burned bones and ash. Human bones were tiny, and children's bones – tiny. The bones were collected in small boxes and transported next to the church to the cemetery. Several thousand people were waiting at the church, among them the Łopuszański grandparents, the Kucharski wife and mother and the Oborski family”.

Dąbrowa

The UPA caught Poles, gathered them in one house, which they then set on fire – they burned alive at least 28 Poles, including families of 6 and 4. „About 3 km from the village of Kąty, behind a small forest, in a field called Dąbrowa, lived the family of Józef Jasiński and his married son Albin Jasiński. On May 1, 1943, a group of Bandera followers all day caught Poles in the fields of Dąbrowa and gathered them in the buildings of J. Jasiński. At dusk, they were cruelly murdered and their apartment and farm buildings set on fire. On the second day, May 2, 1943, a few armed men on 3 carts left Kąty to the site of the fire. On the spot, they saw the remains of murdered adults and burnt children alive. They formed a square into which children were thrown. The burnt remains were collected in one box and buried in a common grave at the Kąty cemetery  […] It was reported that about 23 people died there, including 12 children of”.
