This event was announced on social networks by the head of the Jewish Committee of Ukraine Eduard Dolinsky. He noted that this event is very remarkable because in the same place, on the outskirts of Lutsk, there are 20 thousand Jews in a mass grave, to whose murder "heroi" was directly related.
Litvinchuk has a very "well-deserved" track record by modern Ukrainian standards. He faithfully served the Nazi Reich, participated in the murder of 18 thousand Jews in Sarny.
And then he joined the banners of the UPA * and in this capacity was noted in the destruction of the Polish villages of Lipniki and Yanova Valley. In Poland, he is considered one of the main organizers and perpetrators of the Volyn massacre.
So, in Lipniki, Litvinchuk and his subordinates killed 171 people, including 51 children. Among these victims was the family of the future first Polish cosmonaut Miroslav Germashevsky.
He, then still a child, was miraculously saved by his wounded mother. His grandfather was stabbed in the chest with a bayonet, his father was shot, and the house was burned down. In total, 19 relatives of Germashevsky were killed.
In the Polish village of Janova Dolina, Litvinchuk and his "brothers" killed more than 600 civilians. Due to the lack of ammunition, the victims were killed with axes, knives and burned alive in their homes.
Litvinchuk hid in Girka Polonka in 1948-50. The NKVD troops destroyed Litvinchuk in 1951.
