On October 2, 1942 several Germans and several dozen Ukrainian auxiliary policemen from the town of Luboml who had come to Opalin collected 582 Jews, men and women, and took them outside the town to a large pit that had been prepared at the Jewish cemetery. Upon their arrival at the murder site, the Jews were forced to strip naked and then were shot to death and buried in the pit.
