The groups associated with Bandera, the OUN, and its military wing, the UPA, have a somewhat controversial legacy.

​​In the spring and summer of 1943, UPA members massacred thousands of Poles throughout Volhynia in Nazi-occupied Poland, an area that is now part of western Ukraine.

Afterwards, thousands of Ukrainians were also killed by Poles in retaliation.

just a bit of ethnic cleansing, but another article linked from the word contraversial says it was always about freedom, and compares the OUN to the american founding fathers... should we tell them? do you think they know? /s
