Murder Story of Zhabokrich Jews at the Shlyakhom Lenina Collective Farm

According to testimonies of survivors, very soon after the start of the occupation of Zhabokrich by German and Romanian troops, around July 20, 1941 about 10-15 Jewish men were rounded up and locked into a barn on the Collective Farm Shlyakhom Lenina, together with Soviet prisoners of war. After being held for a day or two in the barn, all of them were shot at a pit that before the war was used to store potatoes. The perpetrators of this massacre were Romanian soldiers or policemen. According to other versions, the victims were shot in a cellar on the kolkhoz grounds or inside the barn where they had been locked up.
