The shooting operation against the Jews of Kramatorsk was carried out by Sondekommando 4B on January 20 or 26, 1942. According to Soviet reports, 600 families were shot on that day, while German documents give the much lower figure of 139 Jews. The victims were rounded up on the pretext of deportation to Palestine, and transported in trucks to the shooting site near the village of Krasnogorka in the vicinity of Kramatorsk (apparently, this village has since become part of the town itself), where they were shot in a ravine.
