At the beginning of September, the UPA murdered two Poles who had gone to their village: „These were the endeavors of their cousins, Stefan and Stanisław Szewczuk. In early September, they sowed grain in their field in Jankowce. The Ukrainians got their hands on them when they returned to Jagodzin after work, where they spent the night with their family. «They killed Stanisław on the spot, and Stefan started to run away, but they caught him, stabbed him with bayonets and cut off the tongue» – recalls the relative of the murdered anna Ryszkiewicz in her account. «They were found and buried in the cemetery in Rymacze» – adds”.
