At the end of July or the beginning of August 1941 Sonderkommando 7b of Einsatzgruppe B arrived in Shklov. 84 Jewish males age 16 to 65 were assembled under the pretext of their being sent to work. Instead, they were accused of arson and looting and taken to the village of Semyonovka just south of Shklov and shot on the kolkhoz lawn not far from the Dniepr.
