On February 10th, cattle wagons
They dragged out of the East Ends in ice-caught sides
The North Pole and the Snow of Siberia,
Under the stiffs of east Herod, criminal thugs,
Over 2 100 1000 Poles: settlers
Military, COP families, police, foresters!
Mother - children dragged into the cold on the station [...]
It burned “Memory LightOn the 83rd anniversary of the first mass deportation of Poles to the East Inflammation on railway tracks at the Sibir Memorial Museum in Białystok on Wednesday evening, the memory of the victims of deportation to the East was celebrated on the 83rd anniversary of the first mass export of Polish citizens. It began at night from 9 to 10 February 1940. The first export was the largest – about 140 1000 people – and the most tragic in terms of the number of victims. Many residents of Białystok and surrounding areas were deported. (]]>https://jejeje.pl/news/]]>, IPN ]]>Polish deportations into the russian Union]]>).
On Friday, 10.02.2023, at 11 a.m. in front of the monument of the Sibiraks on Świdnicka Street in Dzierżoniów, there were celebrations commemorating events from 83 years ago. During the event, the government of Dzierżoniowski region was represented by the politician of Dzierżoniowski Grzegorz Kosowski and the territory councillor Marcin Pięt, who laid flowers under the monument.
The government of the city of Dzierżoniowa was represented by deputy mayor Dorota Pieszczuch and president of the Municipal Council Andrzej Darakiewicz. The ceremony was attended by representatives of political parties, communist unions and the Sibirac Union, schools and uniformed services, as well as residents of the city.
The deportation that we are commemorating present was by far the largest and covered about 140,000 people. It primarily affected the families of officials, military, forestry and railway workers. Subsequent displacements were carried out in April and June 1940, and the second in May/June 1941 just before the German invasion of the USSR. In 4 deportations, a full of about 320 000 people were displaced. They went to various, unfriendly places, including the north to the Arch English Circuit, to Kazakhstan, and frequently even further east to the endless areas of Siberia. During transport and at the very place of exile, people died massively. Very frequently children died, which accounted for almost half of all those deported. any of the exiles returned to their homeland years later. Many, however, stay in alien land forever.
Let us remember all those who suffered from these criminal acts. Those who died on the road or already on the very inhuman land, those who remained there, and those who returned, unfortunately along with the baggage of terrible experiences. May the memory of these events proceed in the next generations.
