Witness interview

Witnesses interviewed: 4. (N°208, 217, 219, 221). Andrey R. (N°208): "I didn’t follow the column, but when I arrive at to the scene, 30m away, I saw a pit which was already filled in, and a second being dug by the villagers. The Jewish men had to line up on the edge of the pit before being shot in the back. They were taken to the execution site in groups of around 50."
