The Battle of Mieniany (Polish: Bitwa pod Mienianami, Ukrainian: Бій під Мінянами; 15 August 1943) was fought between the Battalion “Ryś” of the Peasant Battalions and Companies “Pogoń” and “Grażyna” of the Home Army under the command of Stanisław Basaj and Stefan Kwaśniewski against the Ukrainian Auxiliary Police in the Hrubieszów County of the Lublin Voivodeship.

The assembly point was designated in the Witkowski forest, located south of Zabłocie, which aroused surprise among the soldiers, as the post in Mieniany was to the north.

[4] On 15 September, at night, the unit set off from Dabrowa, crossing the road leading to Hrubieszów, to take up starting positions in the Mieniany forest.

However, an accidental clash with Home army soldiers, who were not informed of the action and hid in a nearby potato field, led to an exchange of fire.

One soldier of the Ryś unit was badly wounded and the shelling alerted the policemen in the post, nullifying the element of surprise.
