On 13 December 1944, in the village of Rozzhaliv in the Radekhiv district, 146 boys – rebels from the Sokal district – were killed by NKVD units. Many local residents were also killed, and many houses were burned.
Today is the 80th anniversary of this terrible event. The delegation from the Sokal region visited the grave of the fallen Sokal rebels in the village of Rozzhaliv and prayed for the repose of the souls of the innocent victims.
Unfortunately, history is repeating itself, and now the enemies are killing young Ukrainian heroes every day who are defending the independence and sovereignty of Ukraine. Remember the past and the present, because without them we have no future.
