High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! The Attack on Hrubieszow was a joint action of the Polish post-Home Army (AK) organization Freedom and Independence (WiN) and the Ukrainian partisans of the Ukrainian Insurgent Army (UPA), which took place on the night of the 27 May 1946. It was the most significant joint action carried out by these two organizations, which had previously often fought one another, but which decided to cooperate in the face of the common threat from the Polish communists and the Soviet NKVD. In the end, the action was partly successful. Documents of the secret police were captured, though not those of the Resettlement Commission. However, by the end of 1946, the contacts between the two groups tapered off. The main initial reason for this was the negative attitude of the Polish underground's high command and of the Polish emigre government, the Delegatura, towards close cooperation with the UPA. The high command issued an order to forbid any further contacts with the UPA, although local contacts continued until at least the end of 1946.
