At the turn of 1943/1944; in the winter of 1943/1944, the UPA stopped the train and murdered a Pole, a teacher; his daughter, who was seriously injured, survived because they thought they had killed her too.

10 Poles died from the shelling and in the fight against the UPA. On July 6, patrols from Przebraż counted at least 550 bodies of murdered Poles in the area. There were many more victims, the patrols did not have time to search for the bodies or places where they could be buried. Many bodies were incinerated in burned pens. On the other hand, the accounts collected in 50–60 years later were rudimentary, many witnesses were already dead, many witnesses were not reached. No witnesses survived from many villages, colonies and furs.
