One day in the autumn (summer, according to some sources)of 1942 more than 200 Jews (400, according to some testimonies) of Staroselye were assembled in the building of the local primary school. They were held overnight, then taken to the edge of Brynkov Forest, southwest of Staroselye. Pits had already been prepared not far from the road leading from Staroselye to Shklov . All the Jews taken there were shot dead.
