In the summer of 1943 the Bandera followers encircled their village, and then, armed with various weapons, entered the village and murdered literally everyone they met on their way. The murderers did not spare anyone, neither women nor children. Kazia told me personally that their house was also attacked by Ukrainian nationalists. She and her husband ran away. Stanisław grabbed the little Alfreda in his arms, she was about 1.5 years old then, and began to run away quickly, as far as possible from home. Unfortunately, the torturers noticed him and sent him a deadly bullet when he fell to the ground, either with the remnant of his consciousness, or by an authentic miracle, he covered the baby with his body, without causing much harm to him. Kazimiera, meanwhile, was hidden in a shelter or in the immediate vicinity and survived the attack.
