Tips

Rafał Klisowski

June 28, 2025

As a result of a tip-off by an UB agent, pseudonym "Zadrożny", on June 25, 1948, the KBW and UB managed to establish the main headquarters of the "Orzeł" District Command, which was located in the Kraski forest in the village of Gleba. The District HQ bunkers were surrounded. Over 50 platoons of the 1st and 2nd KBW Brigades, i.e. over 1,500 soldiers, 4 aircraft and artillery, took part in the action against a group of partisans consisting of a dozen or so people. After a day-long fight and an unsuccessful attempt to break through, the partisan defense was broken (four were killed, nine - including 2 wounded - and two women and a child fell into the hands of the communists). The wounded Józef Kozłowski was transported to Warsaw, where he underwent a difficult investigation, after which he was sentenced to death.
