Bandera was a Ukrainian politician and one of the leaders of Ukrainian national movement in western Ukraine, who headed the Organization of Ukrainian Nationalists (OUN). Bandera was an activist, a scout, and eventually the leader of the Ukrainian nationalist movement and was personally responsible for a series of terrorist acts against Polish and Ukrainian civilians committed in interwar Poland.
