Ozarintsy Polish Cemetery

On July 21 1941, a day after Romanian and German troops occupied Ozarintsy (August 13, according to the inscription on a collective tombstone), Romanian soldiers collected the entire Jewish population of the town in the building of the former synagogue. Between 30 and 70 Jewish men, mainly Bessarabian refugees, were taken, under the pretext of being sent to work, loaded onto trucks, and delivered to the Polish cemetery outside of town, where they were shot to death.
