Battle of Mieniany

The Battle of Mieniany was fought between the Battalion “Ryś” of the Peasant Battalions and 20 AK partisans from Companies “Pogoń” and “Grażyna” of the Home Army under the command of Stanisław Basaj and Stefan Kwaśniewski against the Ukrainian Auxiliary Police in the Hrubieszów County of the Lublin Voivodeship.

Aftermath

When the action was over, the unit withdrew to the designated assembly point by the chapel. However, during the march, there was another exchange of fire - this time from the Pogonia unit, the covering unit for this action, which mistakenly opened fire in the direction of the partisans. After the situation was clarified and the firing ceased, the troops safely reached the chapel.
