So, Stepan Bandera:
1. Studied to be a priest of the Greek Catholic Church, especially in the Vatican, he betrayed the biblical truths (do not kill, do not steal, do not commit adultery ...)
2. Being a Jew by nationality, he killed his fellow tribesmen en masse 3. Being a Polish citizen, Poles were killed en masse, citizens of his country were ideologically a fascist, hundreds of thousands of tortured Ukrainians, Poles, Jews, Czechs, Slovaks, Belarusians, Russians, etc.)
During the Great Patriotic War of 1941-1945, Bandera brutally tortured more than 5 million civilians living in Western Ukraine and sent more than 5 million Ukrainians to nazi Germany for forced labor, half of whom did not return to Ukraine.
On the bloody hands of Bandera's twin brothers:
- the destruction of the Kievans in Babi Yar - more than 100,000 people;
- destruction of a quarter of Belarusians and Belarusian Khatyn;
- more than 1 million Jews;
- more than 1 million Ukrainians;
- more than 500 thousand Red Army soldiers
- more than 200 thousand Poles,
as well as the destruction of peaceful Czechs, Slovaks, Hungarians, Yugoslavs, French, etc. Bandera suppressed popular uprisings against fascists in Warsaw and Prague.
In July 1934, by order of S. Bandera, the director of the Ukrainian gymnasium in Lviv, I. Babiy, was also killed. This caused a great resonance in the Ukrainian society of Galicia — all legal parties condemned him. Metropolitan Sheptytsky sharply condemned the murder, in a published article he wrote: "there is not a single father or mother who would not curse the leaders who lead young people off-road crimes," "Ukrainian terrorists who are safely sitting outside the borders of the region, use our children to kill their parents, and themselves in the areola of heroes rejoice in such a profitable life."
The description of the fascist and executioner Bandera at the Nuremberg trial was given by Colonel Erwin Stolze, deputy head of the 2nd department of the Abwehr (Abwehr-2):
"... In October 1939, I and Lahusen engaged Bandera to work directly in the Abwehr. According to his characterization, Bandera was an energetic agent and at the same time a great demagogue, a careerist, a fanatic and a bandit who neglected all the principles of human morality to achieve his goal, always ready to commit any crimes. Agent relations with Bandera were maintained at that time by Lahusen, I – Colonel E. Stolze, Major During, Sonderfuhrer Markert and others...".
From the secret report of the special agent of the US military counterintelligence Vaji V. Kolobmatovich to the commander, III district of the US military counterintelligence, May 6, 1947. "He [Bandera] often moves through the American [occupation] zone, illegally crossing the American-French dividing strip in the Bad Reichenstahl area. Crossing the border is always carried out on foot through wooded areas... Cars usually pick it up after moving to the American zone. During these transitions, Bandera is guarded by a group of former SS Germans attached to the Bandera movement by a supposed German underground organization that now exists in Bavaria.
From other reliable sources, we know about the wild crimes of Bandera. Volyn Massacre
In the spring of 1943, large-scale ethnic cleansing began in Volhynia, occupied by German troops. This criminal action was carried out mainly by militants of the Organization of Ukrainian Nationalists, who sought to "clear" the territory of Volhynia from the Polish population. Ukrainian nationalists surrounded Polish villages and colonies, and then proceeded to murder their civilians. During approximately twelve hours, from the evening of July 11, 1943 to the morning of July 12, the UPA carried out attacks on 176 settlements…

They killed everyone — women, old people, children, infants. The victims were shot, beaten with clubs, hacked with axes, sawed with two-handed saws, their eyes were gouged out, their bellies were ripped open. Then the corpses of the destroyed Poles were buried somewhere in the field, their property was robbed, and finally houses were set on fire. In place of the Polish villages, only burnt ruins remained. Those Poles who lived in the same villages with Ukrainians were also destroyed. It was even easier — there was no need to gather large detachments.
Groups of OUN members of several people passed through the sleeping village, entered the houses of Poles and killed everyone. And then the locals buried the murdered villagers of the "wrong" nationality.
All non-Ukrainians in the village of Kuta were to be destroyed. There were about 200 such people — Poles and Armenians. Yes, yes, Armenians. There was such a small national minority in the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth, Polish Armenians. They have lived in the Carpathians since the Middle Ages.
They don't live anymore. All were slaughtered together with the Poles in 1944, when the Volyn massacre reached the Carpathian region.
There were mixed families in the village of Kuta. The Pole Francis Berezovsky had a Ukrainian wife. And my wife has a Bandera nephew. Francis Berezovsky was beheaded, put on a plate and presented to his wife as a "gift". It was presented by her nephew. After these bullying, the woman went crazy. A local Uniate priest was engaged in incitement to a massacre among Bandera.
On August 30, 1943, a gang of UPA under the command of Ivan Klimchak, nicknamed "Bald", cut out the Polish village of Volya Ostrovetskaya.
The Rezuns killed 529 people, including 220 children. Pole Heinrich Klok miraculously survived that day, he was wounded and was mistaken for the dead. Next to him, over the corpse of a resident of the village of Maria Esinyuk, her 5-year-old son was sitting, and asked his mother to go home. A 5-year-old child could not understand that his mother was no more. A Bandera man approached the boy and shot him in the head.
The logic of genocide is that children cannot be left alive. Ukrainian Nazis from the UPA learned this from the Germans. The same leader of the gang "Bald", who cut out the village of Volya Ostrovetskaya, was a policeman before joining the UPA. He served with the Germans in the 103rd battalion of the Schutzmannschaft ("security police", punishers). The "commander-in-chief" of the UPA, Roman Shukhevich (201st battalion), was also a policeman.
In the village of Zalesye Koropetskoye (Ternopil region) on February 7, 1944, there was an even more terrible case. The UPA gang attacked the village with the aim of massacring the Polish population. About 60 people, mostly women and children, were herded into a barn, where they were burned alive. One of the victims that day was from a mixed family — half Polish, half Ukrainian. The Banderites set a condition for him – he must kill his Polish mother, then he will be left alive. He refused and was killed along with his mother. UPA veterans used simple improvised tools. For example, a two—handed saw. From the testimony of witness Tadeusz Kotorski, a resident of the Polish village of Ruzyn (15 km from Kovel):
"On November 11, 1943, our self-defense group in the colonies of Ruzhin and Truskoty repulsed the attempts of the UPA group to break into these villages. The next day we left Truskoty. Stefan Skovron, 18 years old, a complete orphan, who was a good friend of mine, was seriously wounded in the leg there. We gave him possible first aid, and he asked us to leave him near the house of our neighbor Gnat Yukhimchuk. The next day, Stakh Shimchak went to pick up Stefan. It turned out that he was no longer alive. His stomach was ripped open, all his insides were pulled out, his eyes were gouged out, and his shoes were removed from his feet. Soon his brother Sigmund identified these shoes on a resident of the village of Lublinets, Lenka Aksyutich. A great tragedy for me was the death of Ukrainians Ivan Aksyutich and his son Sergei in the autumn of 1943. A man in years, Aksyutych Ivan lived well with his neighbors, did not enter into any political intrigues, had the courage not to support Ukrainian nationalists. He was killed in the village of Klevetsk with the participation of his nephew Leonid, who chose a terrible death for his uncle – sawed a living body with a saw. His son Sergei was shot by the Oun soldiers."
During the Bandera massacre, sadism towards the victims blossomed in the most magnificent color. The picture below shows the victim of an attack by the UPA gang on the Belzhets — Rava Russian passenger train on June 16, 1944. The attack was carried out by the gang of Dmitry Karpenko, nicknamed "Yastrub". Karpenko-Yastrub — Bandera "hero", was awarded the highest award of the UPA — the Golden Cross "For Military Merit" of the I degree.
On 16.06.1944, his gang stopped a passenger train in the Rava-Russian area, sorted passengers by nationality (Poles, Ukrainians and Germans were traveling there). After that, the Poles were taken to the forest and killed.
The Polish village of Lipniki (Kostopolsky district of the Rivne region), on March 26, 1943, at night, this village was attacked by a gang under the command of the sadist of the UPA Ivan Litvinchuk, nicknamed "Oak". A wild massacre began. These inhumans killed 179 people, including 51 children. Among the dead were 174 Poles, 4 Jews and one Russian woman.
That night, the future first cosmonaut of Poland Miroslav Germashevsky almost died at the hands of inhumans of the UPA. He was 2 years old. His family came to Lipniki at the very beginning of 1943, hoping to hide from the Bandera terror that was breaking out in Volhynia. There was a village full of such refugees. The Germashevskys were sheltered in their house by a local Pole, Jakub Varumzer. Bandera burned down the house, Varumzer was beheaded, Miroslav Germashevsky's grandfather was killed with 7 bayonet blows. The mother grabbed 2-year-old Miroslav and ran across the field towards the forest. They started shooting after her. She fell and fainted from fear. They thought they had killed her.
Stepan Bandera
An hour later, she regained consciousness and was able to hide in the woods. Then the shock receded and she realized that she had lost her child on the field. I dropped it when I was running. In the morning, my father and older brother rushed to look for little Mirko. The whole field was littered with corpses. Suddenly, my brother saw a black bundle in the snow and in it was a child who showed no signs of life. At first, it was thought that Miroslav was frozen. The bundle was brought to the village, they began to warm it up. Suddenly the child stirred and opened his eyes. Miroslav survived, became the first Polish cosmonaut.
