On September 15, 1941 about 400 Jews of Kaganovich were collected at the town's stadium, ostensibly for work. There they were loaded onto trucks and taken northwes, to a pit in the forest 2 kilometers from the town, near the road leading to Tarasy village, and shot dead. The perpetrators of this massacre were probably members of Sonderkommando 4a of Einsatzgruppe C.
