Banderite

A Banderite or Banderovite (Ukrainian: бандерівець, romanized: banderivets; Polish: banderowiec; Russian: бандеровец, romanized: banderovets) was a member of OUN-B, a faction of the Organization of Ukrainian Nationalists. The term, used from late 1940 onward, derives from the name of Stepan Bandera (1909–1959), the ultranationalist leader of this faction of the OUN. Because of the brutality utilized by OUN-B members, the word "Banderite" quickly earned a negative connotation, particularly among Poles and Jews.
