In Rybno, „on the March evening (March 26/27), 1944, the UPA band murdered our entire Matusiak family”. Those that died were: Grzegorz Matusiak, his wife Maria and son Piotr, Ksawery Matusiak, his wife Wanda, their daughter‑in‑law Maria and grandson, moreover, two women and six children with unknown names and four people from the Kulbicki family. Adults were stabbed with knives, and children had their heads smashed against the walls of buildings. Only 10‑year‑old Stanisław survived from the Matusiak family, though wounded managed to crawl out from under the pile of dead bodies.

Only one man was shot to the head, the rest stabbed with knives or smashed the victims' heads. „A woman was cut with knives in the kitchen. We didn't recognize her. Later it turned out that it was Sabina Zielińska, who was dragged by the Bandera followers from the road to the Baners' house and murdered there  […] Uncle was lying dead on the floor, next to him was his daughter Krysia. Uncle Kulbicki was killed by the Bandera followers with a shot to the head, Krysia was chopped up with” knives.

Evening, November 10, 1944. Two sotas of the UPA are approaching Rybno by the bushes on the Cheremosh river, reinforced with Hutsuls from mountain villages. Several hundred men armed with knives, axes and pitchforks go to „to clean the Ukrainian soil of aliens”. In Rybno there are almost a hundred „aliens”, i.e. Poles, mainly women, children and the elderly, who live among 1,500 Ukrainians. My mother and grandmother are among them  […] They cruelly murder 23 people aged 2 to 70. There would be more casualties if not for the Soviet Itriebitielnyj battalion, which rushed the village to help (against the will of the NKVD, which apparently preferred to wait for the UPA to murder the Poles). A Catholic church, built only 10 years ago, is on fire. Polish farms are on fire and Ukrainian ones are on fire. The terrified mother and grandmother run to the tołoka (this is what the local people call the thicket over the Cheremosh River), looking for salvation. It's raining and snowing, and it's bitterly cold.
