On October 16 (in September or October, according to some testimonies), 1942 most of the inmates of the Murovannye Kurilovtsy ghetto who had been spared during the August massacre were driven from their homes and taken to the market square. From there they were taken to Popova village, about 2 kilometers southeast of Murovannye Kurilovtsy and shot dead on the southwestern outskirts of the village, on the territory of the Stalin collective farm. The precise number of victims of this massacre is unknown. The perpetrators were apparently German rural and local auxiliary policemen.

On August 21, 1942 the Jews of Murovannye Kurilovtsy of all ages and both sexes were driven from their homes and taken to the market square, where they were told that they were going to be resettled. At the market square a selection of able-bodied people was carried out. These were then taken back to the ghetto, while those deemed unfit for work were taken on foot southwest along the road leading to the village of Galaykovtsy. On the outskirts of Murovannye Kurilovtsy, at the edge of the Bucheno Forest on the territory of the Timoshenko collective farm, the victims were ordered to strip naked and to lie face down on top of each other in several pits that had been dug in advance, and then they were shot dead. The perpetrators of this massacre which claimed the lives of between 1,100 (according to German sources) and 2,500 (according to Soviet sources and testimonies of survivors) Jews from Murovannye Kurilovtsy itself, as well as from Snitkov and Verbovets, were German rural policemen from the Bar district headquarters of the rural police and local auxiliary policemen.
