Bieżeństwo
The Bieżeństwo (, , ) was a mass evacuation during World War I, in Polish context and historiography also called exile, resettlement or displacement of the population, mainly of Orthodox faith, from the western governorates of the Russian Empire into the depths of Russia, after the German troops broke through the front line in the period from May 3 to September 1915. The apogee of the Bieżeństwo fell in the period from spring to autumn 1915.
