"Citizens! Today was a difficult day for Warsaw. Enemy shells hit hundreds of houses. But above all, they hit the castle, they hit the St. John's Cathedral, they hit the Jesuit church. They hit many places dear to our hearts. These barbaric methods of hitting especially churches or national monuments, such as the castle or the Belweder, these barbaric methods, which have nothing to do with war, which are not war, which are bandit methods, must arouse anger! Anger, fierce anger, which will avenge all the wrongs that the people of Warsaw are suffering today. History is inexorable in this respect. It does not matter that they are ruining Warsaw today. Warsaw was once ruined by others, it will be rebuilt, but they are ruining themselves with such methods; history will not forgive the Germans."
