The Ukrainians murdered 3 Poles and a Ukrainian, brought up by a Polish woman: they tied Franciszek Cichocki with barbed wire and beat him, the spikes stuck into his body, which gave the Ukrainians a reason to mock (it was the period of fasting, the barbed wire symbolized the crown of thorns on the temples of Christ), they threw his body to the Horyń River. They also murdered a 40‑year‑old woman after torture and threw it into the river.
