The Polish Foundation “Freedom and Democracy” completes the formation of a mission. In total, the exhumation will be carried out by about 20 people, including several Ukrainians.

To make exhumation of the bodies of victims of the Volyn tragedy will begin in the second half of April in the village of Puzhniki of Ternopil region. According to the plan, exhumation work will last about a month.
