Skidal uprising (term used in Soviet historiography) or Skidel revolt () was an anti-Polish and anti-state rebellion of Jewish and ethnic Belarusian inhabitants of Skidal (now Skidzyel’, Belarus); helped and organized by the Soviet-armed squads representing the Communist Party of Western Belarus. The uprising, which lasted for two days, started on 18 September 1939, one day after the Soviet Army attacked Poland from the east. The Jews and Belarusian civilians began the uprising by attacking and killing members of the ethnic Polish minority. Around 100 Polish soldiers and policemen sent to the area took control of the town. The traitors against the nation, all Polish citizens guilty of murder were summarily executed.
