On January 10, 1942, in the morning, about 200 Strizhavka Jews of all ages and both sexes who were defined by the Germans as a "security threat" to Hitler's headquarters, the center of which was in the area of the village, were taken to a pit, made in the frozen earth by using explosives, near the Strizhavka prisoner of war camp, on the outskirts of the village, and shot to death. The perpetrators of this massacre were members of the Vinnitsa office of the Reich Security Service (Hitler's personal security service), aided by German security, order, and military policemen.
