Volume 43. The Struggle against Agentura: Protocols of Interrogation of the OUN SB in the Ternopil Region 1946-1948. Book One

This volume contains interrogation reports of individuals suspected of collaborating with the Soviet state security organs, which are based on the activity of the OUN’s Security Service (SB) in Ternopil oblast. The materials are taken from an underground archive that was discovered in 2004 in the village of Ozerna, Zboriv raion, Ternopil oblast, and buried in the yard of a house belonging to (now deceased) Sofron Kutny. At the very least, they are helpful for studying the organization, scope, and activities of the underground structure of one oblast in the years 1946-1948, when the pressure exerted by the Soviet state security organs on the Ukrainian underground was very intense. In addition, this reports clearly reflects the cruel, inhumane, and brutal manner in which the Soviet punitive agencies spun their imperialistic web of evil through terror and violence on the territory of Western Ukraine. This volume contains 85 of 193 extant interrogation reports covering 13 raions of Ternopil oblast, namely: Berezhany, Bilobozhnytsia, Borshchiv, Buchach, Velyki Birky, Velyky Hlybochok, Velyki Dederkaly, Vyshnivets, Zalishchyky, Zalozhtsi, Zbarazh, and Zboriv. Toronto-Lviv, 2006. Hardcover: 1,332 pp. Illustrations and diagrams. This volume was funded by THE ROMAN DUBYNIAK MUSEUM FOUNDATION, Leeds, England, in memory of HRYHORII KISHKA.
