Kozara
At the beginning of 1944, they murdered 5 Poles who did not leave their farms. „Władysław Szulc – says: We lived in Kozary (Poles called Kozary, The Ukrainians – Kozara). a Pole lived nearby and Polish and Ukrainian peasants came to him there, because he was a strong politician. I heard that he said: «Ukraine it will be under that burdock» and it was showing the burdock on the list. Eventually it disappeared. He had a wife and children, they started looking for him – they walked in the woods and they too eventually disappeared. Then the Poles started to be afraid of”.

[The Ukrainians] murdered 1 Polish woman. „The road from the Nowosielce station to the Ukrainian village of Wiśniów led through the huge pasture, but at that time the Ukrainians did not go through the pasture, because they were afraid of the Poles' revenge — after they murdered defenseless women in Borysów. Before my eyes, a man approached a woman grazing a cow, gave her his hand and suddenly she died among the grains and the forest. It was Mrs. Krochmal from Kozary, she lived with four children at the Korczyński family in Łukowiec. Orphaned children: two girls and two boys were taken care of by her brother Ziemiańska, also from Kozary, and living with the Faszynkiedr family”.

It was Zofia Grochmal, and it was caused by the sons of her sister who were married to a Ukrainian, so she did not suspect anything wrong.
