Dovhyi Voinyliv (Ukrainian: Довгий Войнилів, Polish: Dołha Wojniłowska) is a village in Kalush Raion, Ivano-Frankivsk Oblast, Ukraine. Before World War II the village was part of Kałusz county in Stanisławów Voivodship, Second Republic of Poland.[1] Dovhyi Voinyliv belongs to Verkhnia rural hromada, one of the hromadas of Ukraine.[2]

World War II

[edit]

During the wave of massacres of Poles in Volhynia between 1942 and 1945, Dołha Wojniłowska was one of hundreds of sites of mass murder of Polish civilians by OUN-UPA.[3] On April 2, 1944 local Catholic priest, Rev. Błażej Czuba,[4] was burned alive in his parish with 85 people. Soon after, on the first night of Easter, April 9–10, 1944, additional 64 people were massacred there during an OUN-UPA murderous raid overlooked by SS-Galizien. The attack was accompanied by the burning and razing of farmhouses, schools and churches.[5]
