Piórkowicze

The extermination of Abramowiec, part of Radowicz, was brought about by the German pacification on a hot Saturday, July 24, 1943. The immediate cause, however, was a provocation by the OUN – UPA. On that day, in the morning, a column of about 20 German gendarmerie trucks traveled from Kowel to Tuliczów along the route through Abramowiec. Soon, shots rang out from the direction of Tuliczów, then Lityń. An hour later, a dense line of gendarmes approached Abramowiec, who started shooting at the escaping people, setting fire to the buildings. Surprised and terrified inhabitants looked for hiding in buildings, gardens, bushes, furrows, fields of cereals. Unfortunately, the tight raider searched for the hidden, murdering everyone. Some, hidden in buildings, burned alive. Columns of black smoke rose ominously into the blue sky. The plane circled the pacified villages firing at them with the on–board weapons. The artillery of the armored train from Turzysk shelled the burning villages. Humming bullets flew over us and exploded in the burning villages. We spent that night, as well as many previous ones, in hiding with my parents, this time in the crops. We were awakened by violent shooting and loud explosions. We waited for the worst in fear. Abramowiec was wiped off the face of the earth. 25 people were murdered in the colony and 2 were injured  […] The Małka family of five was murdered in nearby Piórkowicze, three children were thrown through a window into a burning house. Wounded; Antonina Dulkowska and Stefan Gut, murdered by the UPA in the village of Peresieka near Zasmyki. The list of people may not be complete.

Piórkowicze

[The Ukrainians] murdered 2 Poles. Others: „In August, several families, risking a lot, returned to the Piórkowcze colony neighboring Zasmyki. On the same day, they were slaughtered by the UPA. As I recall, these were, among others Koperski and Szarwiłł families”.

In this colony, a self–defense unit from Radomiel found the bodies of murdered Poles in a well and the body of a child nailed to a door and wall in one of the houses.
