This picture was taken by an unknown photographer after a OUN/UPA massacre. These small children were tied to a tree with barbed wire. The road was lined with similar atrocities and the placard was placed on each tree. It read. "Droga do wolnej Ukrainy" (Road to a Free Ukraine). Would some one mind telling me what crime apart from being Polish did these children commit.

Authors Note: A certain Lucyk had to flee to Canada after his whole family was murdered by OUN, this is also documented that the same person denounced his family. See the timeframe of a Antonowka village.
The reader should be aware that this is NOT a Political page but a terrible reminder of the atrocities committed by Ukrainian Nationalists against defenseless Polish populace.
Majority of these crimes were committed by Ukrainian inhabitants living in the same or neighbouring villages.
