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.

In April 45, the following people died: in Skwarzawa (Good Friday) – 30 Poles.

Good Friday fell on March 30, 1945. Komański and Siekierka on p. 509 report that „between 1941 and 1945 Ukrainian nationalists murdered 48” people. It was probably a murder committed on March 30, 1945, because witnesses are easier to remember such a day as Good Friday. However, after W. Kubow I place it in April 1945.
