Zapust Lwowski
The UPA murdered 2 Polish women. „Another family named Kalinka came from our village of Zapust Lwowski to Łukowiec. They also had relatives in Łukowiec. Stanisława Kalinka had four small children, she and her sister decided that they would go again to the village of Zapust for the rest of their belongings, and both died without a trace on the way back. We don't know where they were murdered? The children grew up with their grandparents, they say they live near Środa Śląska” (They were: Józefa Garboś and Stanisław Kalinka.).

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.

Kozioł Franciszek, 35 years old; 2. Kozioł Władysława, Genowefa nee Mroczek, wife, 35 years old; 3. Kazimierz the goat, s/o 6. Władysław and Genowef are given as separate persons, and it is one person who was called in two forms. Kazimierz's son is missing from the list. I come from Zapust Lviv and these people were my relatives.
