Grobelnia
At the beginning of June, the UPA murdered a Polish family of three, who had not dealt with the self–defense of Przebraż during its expedition to find Poles in Kołki. Adam Kownacki reports: „On our return, we went to Grobelnia to take another Polish family from this town. She did not want to take us to Kołek, saying that she would collect her belongings and take us with us when we returned. Unfortunately, she was brutally murdered. The host was stabbed, his wife nailed to the door with knives, and the torn child was thrown on the” table.
