Hospital in Nagatar
On September 13, 1941 Nagartav's approximately 900 Jews were ordered to appear at the local club building, that had formerly been a synagogue, for registration. The Jews were told that, after registration, they would be sent to Palestine. After being registered by a Ukrainian teacher or by the local police chief (according to various testimonies), the Jews were locked into the club overnight. The next morning a number of them were taken to a clay pit near the Nagartav hospital. Another group of Jews was taken toward the Klochanka River on the other side of the colony. Those who were taken to the hospital were forced to undress and then taken in small groups to the edge of a pit, where they were shot dead. The shooting was apparently carried out by members of Sonderkommando 12a of Einsatzgruppe D, assisted by local Ukrainian auxiliaries. Some Jews who succeeded in escaping this massacre were eventually caught by the Germans and their local auxiliaries, and also murdered near the hospital.
