Lubieszów

On the edge of the forest near the village of Derewko, the Bandera followers gang raped and murdered Helena Kaczmarek, 35, a nurse in the hospital in Kamień Koszyrski, during her return home. And: Fr prof. Józef Marecki: „Many of the murdered died because they were Latin. They did not take advantage of the opportunity to escape or convert to Orthodoxy. This is how the Capuchin, an employee of the local Byzantine–Slavic mission in Lubieszów, brother Sylwester Hładio and two non–habite sisters, died. The clergyman's head was smashed on the altar and the sisters disgraced and murdered. It was done by their fellow countrymen only for not renouncing Catholicism and accepting the” Orthodoxy.

Lubieszów

After the massacre in Lubaszówka, the UPA entered Lubieszów and „chose about 200 Poles at random and locked them in a two–family wooden house belonging to the Buttman and Piaskowski families, the building was covered with straw and” was set on fire. In the evening of that day, two local The Ukrainians murdered two Poles: a pharmacist and his wife. The Upowiec also murdered a monk from a Capuchin monastery. On that day, in Lubaszów and Lubaszówka, the Ukrainians murdered about 253 Poles and about 50 Ukrainians.

source: „Condemned to oblivion”; in: „Our Poland”, in: 8.XI.2005

The number of about 200 victims in Lubieszów is confirmed by the testimony of a Ukrainian, Myna Saszczuk, who on November 10, 1943, together with other neighbors, transported the burned corpse to a common grave at the” Catholic cemetery. And: „Having entered Lubieszów in the evening, they spent the inhabitants of Polish nationality (183 people) at Buttman's hut, which stood in front of the present military police station, supposedly for a meeting. Then they began their Cain work: they set fire to the house on all sides and waited for the survivor to break out of this whirlwind to finish off the victim and throw it back into the fire. The inhabitants of Lubieszów recall how a certain beauty with long hair begged for the rescue of her fiancé, a gang member, who pulled a saber from her scabbard and, under the general croak of the killers, with one blow separated the girl's head from the body”.
