Zaruddia, Zbarazh urban hromada, Ternopil Raion, Ternopil Oblast

Zaruddia (, ) is a village in the Zbarazh urban hromada of the Ternopil Raion of Ternopil Oblast in Ukraine.

History The first written mention of the village was in 1564.

In the Second Polish Republic, the town was the seat of the rural commune of Zarudzie until October 1, 1933, and then of the rural commune of Kołodno in Krzemieniec County, Volhynia Voivodeship. At that time, it was inhabited primarily by Ukrainians, with only a few Polish and Jewish families.

In July 1943, Ukrainian nationalists from the OUN-UPA killed all Polish residents and burned their homes, as a part of Volhynia genocide.Władysław Siemaszko, Ewa Siemaszko, Ludobójstwo dokonane przez nacjonalistów ukraińskich na ludności polskiej Wołynia 1939–1945, vol. 1–2, Warsaw, 2000; pp. 439, ISBN 83-87689-34-3, OCLC 749680885.
