Myrosław Onyszkewycz „Orest Karat” gave the order: „I order you to purge your area immediately from the Polish element and Ukrainian–Bolshevik agents. The purge should be carried out in riverside hostels sparsely populated by Poles. To this end, create a militia near the area, composed of our members, whose task would be to eliminate the above–mentioned. Our larger hostels will be cleared of this element by our military units even in broad daylight […] The clearing of the area must be completed before our Easter so that we can celebrate it without Poles. Remember that when the Bolsheviks find us with Poles in our territory, they will slaughter us all […] Make a hard, ruthless fight with them. Not to spare anyone, even in mixed marriages. To take Lachs out of their houses, but The Ukrainians and children in these houses should not be liquidated […] Get the gun. Death to the Poles. Stop, April 6, 1944. Glory to the heroes! Orest, Karat” This order is in the files of the investigation against Myroslav Onyshhevych.

Bednarz Hanna, 18, was murdered „A pretty girl from Kimirz, 18‑year‑old Hania Bednarz, whom her parents left to guard the farm, escaped from the village in 1944 and left the village before the Ukrainian attack and went west. I think they stopped nearby and it seemed to them that they would return soon, and the Bandera girls would not hurt. Hania looked after the farm only until September 1944, because in the middle of the month she was killed by unknown men and the house was robbed. Prior to her death, she was raped by” several times.
