From the testimony of Lyuba Yastrebitskaya, who was born in 1925 in Rechitsa and lived there during the war years:
On November 26,[1941] …following the order of the German "SD" punitive department policemen came to my apartment and arrested my mother Mariya Borisovna Yastrebinskaya - 59 years old, my brother's wife. Nina Mikhaylovna Yastrebinskaya - 39 years old, and her daughter Sofiya Yastrebinskay, born in 1930. All the three people mentioned above were of Jewish origin. After the above-mentioned civilians were taken into custody, the policemen loaded them onto a cart and drove them to a building near the prison on Sovetskaya Street. On November 29, 1941 in my presence, the above-mentioned civilians were shot to death in a dug-out at the prison.
