Myrosław Onyszkewycz „Orest Karat” gave the order: „I order you to purge your area immediately from the Polish element and Ukrainian–Bolshevik agents. The purge should be carried out in riverside hostels sparsely populated by Poles. To this end, create a militia near the area, composed of our members, whose task would be to eliminate the above–mentioned. Our larger hostels will be cleared of this element by our military units even in broad daylight […] The clearing of the area must be completed before our Easter so that we can celebrate it without Poles. Remember that when the Bolsheviks find us with Poles in our territory, they will slaughter us all […] Make a hard, ruthless fight with them. Not to spare anyone, even in mixed marriages. To take Lachs out of their houses, but The Ukrainians and children in these houses should not be liquidated […] Get the gun. Death to the Poles. Stop, April 6, 1944. Glory to the heroes! Orest, Karat” This order is in the files of the investigation against Myroslav Onyshhevych.

Anna Tyczyńska, b. July 15, 1887. Probably raped and beaten to death in Rybotycze by the Bandera followers. As a result of her injuries, she died on September 20, 1946, and was buried in the cemetery in Rybotycze. The circumstances of her death could not be confirmed on the basis of other sources. Probably her death could have been related to the events of September 19, 1946, when a UPA group of about 100 people attacked Rybotycze, robbing 15 quintals of grain.
