Most of the approximately 300 Jews who remained in Dneprodzerzhinsk were shot at the chemical byproduct plant in Bagley, some distance from the city of Dneprodzerzhinsk, in a sewage ditch, either in the autumn of 1941 or the winter of 1941/1942, apparently, by members of Einsatzkommando 6 of Einsatzgruppe C.
