In 1942, apparently in October, a number of Jews from Dzyunkov were brought to the county seat Pliskov and shot, apparently together with local Jews, at the animal burial ground near the Fruzinkovskiy Forest. The perpetrators of the massacre were members of the German rural police and local auxiliaries.
