Bombing of Frampol The Bombing of Frampol occurred during the German invasion of Poland in 1939.

Frampol was destroyed by the bombers of Luftwaffe's 8th Air Corps, under General Wolfram Freiherr von Richthofen. According to Polish historians Pawel Puzio and Ryszard Jasinski no units of the Polish army were stationed in Frampol and the town did not have any military facilities.
