A short time after the start of the German occupation of Kakhovka, in early September 1941 Germans and local auxiliary policemen assembled between 40 and 100 Jewish men. They were collected under the pretext of being sent to work putting out a fire at the local grain elevator and burying the bodies of soldiers and civilians killed during the fighting for Kakhovka. The assembled Jews were taken several hundred meters outside the town to an anti-tank ditch and shot there. The massacre was apparently perpetrated by members of Sonderkommando 10a of Einsatzgruppe D, assisted by German and local auxiliary policemen.
According to various testimonies, some of the Jews of Kakhovka murdered in the large scale massacre in the second part of September or October (according to different Soviet and German sources) 1941 were shot at the same murder site. The total number of Jews murdered there is not known.

The Jews were told they were going to be moved to another county. After the Jews arrived, they were divided into groups and taken on foot to the Dimitrov Collective Farm, about six kilometers from Kakhovka. There at least some of the victims were ordered to take off their clothes. Many of them were then shot dead at a 40-meter-deep well but some of the victims were forced to jump into the well. To ensure that no one would survive the perpetrators dropped hand grenades down the well. In various Soviet reports the estimate of the number of Jews murdered ranges from 300 to 2,000.
