Radomianka
My parents, Jan and Marianna Snopek and their two daughters – Kazimiera and Leontyna, and my mother's brother Jan Jasiński, with his wife Stanisława and three daughters: Helena, Genowefa and Kazimiera, lived in Radomianka. The beginning of 1943 was marked by the mass murder of the Polish population by nationalists. Every night and day more villages burned, people found out who they had murdered again, the more courageous ones went to watch. Two few‑year‑old girls were murdered among the first. I don't know their names. They were sisters to each other. My sister Kazimiera, who was then about 3 years old, was with my mother and sister Lonia at this funeral. Both were in one coffin in white dresses. They had barbed wire tangled around their necks, and torn tongues lay beside them on the pillow. Kazia remembers this view to this day […] Kapuścińska 25.03. 1943 came to my mother and said: „Snopkowa, you have a new home. Tomorrow there will be an attack on Radomianka. I want to occupy your house because I like it, but I don't want blood on the floor. Today, the Ukrainians are busy in the neighboring village and are murdering there. Get in the cart and run away”. Mom quickly notified the neighbors and the next ones. People gathered quickly and left for Klewanie. Nobody died in this action. After some time, when there was no food, a few of the farmers went home to get what they had left there, but they were attacked on the road near Susek and 12 people died, that is all who had gone. .

Radomianka
Witness NN: „There were no conflicts between our people and Poles. I don't remember those […] it so happened that all of them escaped from Radomianka – the village where Poles lived – in one night. They ran away through the forest towards Klewanie, across Horeń [the Horyń River], through the forest and to Klewanie. They escaped overnight. Whoever came for the second time, eg for something from home, [it] was wrong. They put up houses. Even the boy who lived next door with us came and got him. They killed him and threw him into Horynia”.
