The Ukrainians murdered Anna Wojtak, 73.

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.

Sucha Wola

Fragments of K. Wasylkewycz's memoirs about the murders of Ukrainians in Sucha Wola and other villages by soldiers of the Polish Armed Forces, members of MO and bands from neighboring Polish villages:
In December 1944 the ground was trembling from the detonation of the far front during the great Muscovites' offensive against the Germans. It was terrible to live. The front was moving away, but the countryside was attacked by the Polish–Bolshevik army, militia and gangs. They disturbed the inhabitants during the day and the UPA at night. The first beat, robbed, caught people, the second stood up for the people and asked for food.
In the autumn, in September–October, Polish militia gathered from the entire district attacked the village of Sucha Wola and the surrounding villages. They robbed, beaten, and in Sucha Wola burned 12 houses on the west side, in the so‑called Horba  […] In January 1945, a larger number of the army burst into the village. They searched almost every home. At Dmytro Kebała, they even took school textbooks in Ukrainian, because they were looking for 'Surma'. They ordered lunch at school for 15 of the elders. On the porch they torn off the floor looking for weapons, torn mattresses in the kitchen, knocked over everything in the house in search of rifles, brochures, and stole whatever they could. A few went to the village, and when they returned, they said that they had taken away one «Banderite». It was 17‑year‑old Wasyl Kozak, son of Teodor and Kateryna  […] The boy was killed around 10 am. They took him outside the house barefooted into the snow and, in front of his mother, groaning on the doorstep, shot for two of his older brothers, Iwan Kozak and Dmytro Kozak, were in the UPA, and father Teodor was bringing them something to eat
”.
