Entrevista del testigo

Aleksandr Andreyevich S.: "The shootings took place near the barracks where the Germans were living. They shot Jews and partisans near the pit. There was one grave, 20x10m, with a lot of dead corpses in it(men, women, children). There were shootings almost every day". (Witness N°589, interviewed in Dranukha, on April 22, 2012).
