Ostrozhok

The Jewish children separated from their parents remained locked in the club for two days after the adults were shot. Apparently they were of various ages, including infants. On the third day the police brought carts to the club, loaded the children onto them, and took them to pits, where some of the victims were shot and some thrown in. The murder operation site was apparently near the cemetery of Ostrozhok village. Probably non-Jewish children were also shot in the vicinity of the village. The exact number of victims is not known.
