Murder Story of Armavir Jews at the Armavir Orphanage

Murder Site
Orphanage in Armavir
Russia (USSR)
In August 1942 German forces entered an orphanage with children from Odessa. Six of the care-givers, as well as most of the children, were Jewish. Only 14 of 28 children were saved, by convincing the Germans that they were not Jewish. The 14 identifiably Jewish children and 6 Jewish care-givers were shot on the spot.
