On June 5, 1945, Kupiak, at the head of his band and the band of UPA Diżaka „Czarnota”, attacked the village of Sokole, in the district of Kamionka Strumiłowa. During the attack, the following were murdered: councilor of the district Council in Busko, Julia Dusan, Marta Kucak and her daughters, Maria Kucak, Olena Bakun and Teofila Bakun (Olena and Teofila's husbands served in the Soviet army), Anastazja Dusan and her daughter Anastazja, Anastazja Wołoszyn and her son Iwan, Andrzej Sacharewicz, his wife Maria and their children, Iwan and Anastazja and Jakub Wołoszyn. 16 people in total. The property of the murdered was stolen. Testimony of Anastazja Sacharewicz, a witness: „I have lived in the village of Sokole since I was born. In 1944 I lived in the neighborhood of Andrzej Wołoszyn's family, who was my relative. When the front passed here in the summer of 1944, the entire farm of Wołoszyn burned down. His family came to live with me. Soon after, Wołoszyn was drafted into the Soviet army. At the beginning of June 1945, late in the evening, when we, i.e. me, Andrzej's wife Anastazja and their daughter at the age of thirteen or fourteen, were getting ready for sleep (son Iwan Voloshin, 15, was sleeping in the barn), unexpectedly several armed bandits stormed the cottage. One of them turned to Wołoszyn's wife, Anastasia, that he had some business to do with her. He led her, accompanied by other bandits, to the other room and closed the door. After a while I heard a shot. I understood that they murdered her. The girl, Ola, started to cry. I begged the bandits to let her out of the hut. We both ran out and hid in the orchard. I saw the bandits enter the barn, found Ivan's son there, brought him to the room where the dead mother was lying, and murdered him there. In the morning I entered the hut and saw that dead Anastasia was sitting on the floor, leaning against the stove, they shot her in the face. Her son's corpse lay beside him, his mouth full of dirt, which would mean they had tortured him before he died. They killed the mother and son because her husband and his father served in the Soviet army”. Testimony of the injured Wasyl Sacharewicz: „Once my father, Andrzej, was met by the bandits of warlord Kupiak and they ordered him to take off the shoes he had recently bought. Their father argued with them and finally told them that they were not using other people's shoes to evoke their self–contained Ukraine. The bandits remembered this because after a few days they came and killed the father, mother, brother Ivan and sister Anastasia”.
