Zatwarnica

Tadeusz A. Olszański in the Bieszczady guide (Pruszków 2000) states: „In mid–August UPA attacks took place on a number of villages in the eastern part of the Bieszczady Mountains, such as Smolnik, Zatwarnica, Tworylczyk, Sokoliki Górskie, Beniowa, and Lutowiska (August 17), where thanks to strong self–defense, slaughter was avoided. Several to a dozen” people died in these attacks. The attacks on Lutowiska took place in March and May, and the slaughter of several Polish families on July 20–22, 1944.
