The Minister of foreign Affairs of Ukraine Pavlo Klimkin stressed that the settlement of Huta penyatskaya is a symbol of unification of Ukrainians and poles.

“Guta penyatskaya, despite the attempts of vandals, is and will be the symbol of the unification of Ukrainians and poles. Attempts barbarians are useless. But to punish them is our duty,” – wrote P. Klimkin on Twitter.

As reported, on the night of 8 January, unknown persons blew up a memorial on the site of the village of Huta penyatskaya, which destroyed Hitler’s troops during the punitive operation on 26 February 1944 .
