Poland Commemorates 83rd Anniversary Of Volhynia Genocide

RZESZOW, POLAND - JULY 11: Participants hold a banner reading 'March in Memory of Victims of Genocidium Atrox' (Latin for Savage Genocide) during a silent march marking the 83rd anniversary of Bloody Sunday on July 11, 2026, in Rzeszow, Poland. The solemn demonstration marks the peak of synchronized massacres, torture, and murders of over 100,000 Polish civilians perpetrated by the Ukrainian Insurgent Army (UPA) and the Organization of Ukrainian Nationalists (OUN-B) with the support of factions of the local Ukrainian peasantry across pre-1939 Polish settlements in Volhynia and Eastern Galicia between 1943 and 1947.
