Description

That would be the fate of Europe – if Bolshevism had swept across the land. This is what happened in the formerly Polish territories, where the Bolsheviks brutally slaughtered thousands of Ukrainians – men, women, and children. When German soldiers liberated the country, they found many thousands of murdered people. The picture shows women searching for their relatives among the victims of Bolshevik blood terror in a prison courtyard in Lviv.
