Approximately 62 Jews were forced into the clubhouse building of the kolkhoz. They had been collected under the pretext that they were being relocated to a place to work but, instead were taken to a collective farm that had been named in honor of Maxim Gorky. After that they were robbed and then shot to death in a prepared pit. The murder operation was perpetrated by German forces and local policemen.

On September 5, 1942, the Germans ordered the arrest of all the Jews residing in the village of Vostochny. The eleven Jewish evacuees were immediately rounded up and herded into a barn that had previously housed the cattle of the Borets collective farm. The Germans looted the Jews' possessions and valuables. The Jews were held there for three days without food or clean drinking water. Then, on September 8, 1942, the Jews were forced to strip to their underwear and taken to the local silo pit, at the same collective farm. A truck drove over the victims once, and then the German soldiers shot the wounded Jews and covered the halfdead victims with a layer of soil. Afterward, the German truck drove over them again.
