Orekhovskaya Ravine
According to several testimonies, apparently in September of 1941, "Soviet civilians" – evidently Jews - from Nikolayev were taken to the Orekhovaya ravine, several hundred meters from the Nikolayev suburb of Sadki and killed there by machine-gun fire. Unknown are both the dates of these massacres and the number of victims.

Temvod
Jews of all ages and both sexes who had apparently escaped the large-scale massacre of Nikolayev Jews in September 1941 but were apprehended later were taken in groups by truck to the Temvod suburb of Nikolayev and shot in pits near the banks of the Ingul River. The exact dates of these shootings are not known. According to some testimonies, they were carried out starting in October 1941. Unknown also are the total number of victims murdered at Temvod and the identity of the perpetrators of these massacres. The mass murders in the fall of 1941 were most likely carried out by members of Sonderkommando 11a and Einsatzkommando 12 of Einsatzgruppe D, which was stationed in Nikolayev at that time.
