An Anti-Tank Trench near Moskovskoye

At 10 AM on August 29, 1942, three German officers from the mobile killing squads entered Moskovskoye. With the help of local policemen, they arrested 118 civilians, among them 112 Jews, and loaded them onto military trucks. The victims were taken to a nearby anti-tank trench, about five kilometers from the village. The perpetrators divided the victims into groups of five and shot them, their bodies falling into the trench.
