Excerpt from P. Kupeć's account about the murder of Ukrainians in Krasna:
„Terrible murder took place in the village, they fled to Ukraine in fear. My failure said that he would not leave his hometown, even if everyone left. He agreed to leave when the Poles murdered Julek from Potok in the family home. At that time, the entire village signed up to leave. Only a few people remained: Kozaczek, Paweł Mazur, Leszko from Myckówka and Magda from Jaz, who returned from the station with her husband. All these people were drowned, Kozaczek shot”.

1945 October 9, Krosno — Notification of the starost of Krosno to the Social and Political Department of the Provincial Office in Rzeszów about the murder of the Ukrainian population:
„On 6.10 this year Aleksander Jabłonkowski, 88, of Ruthenian nationality, was murdered in the Krasna community. The body was hidden by the murderer. On the same day, Magda Szczotowska and her husband Józef Szczotowski, farmers from Krasna, disappeared without a trace. There is a suspicion that murder was committed on them and the body was hidden. Let me mention that after the resettlement of the Ukrainians from the Ruthenian group Krasna, only a few Ruthenians remained: Aleksander Jabłonkowski, Anna Rusenko (mixed Polish–Ruthenian family) and the Szczotowski family (mixed Polish–Russian family). Józef Szczotowski was Polish, while his wife Magda Szczotowska was Russian after her father, her mother was Polish. The background of the murders has not yet been established”.
