In November (September, according to one testimony), 1941 about 2,500 (according to Soviet reports) Jews from Novaya Priluka of all ages and both sexes were driven to Staraya Priluka village, about 2 kilometers north of Novaya Priluka. There the victims were forced to strip and lie down in ditches used before the war by a collective farm to store vegetables, and then they were shot dead. The exact date of this massacre is unknown. The perpetrators were members of Einsatzkommando 5 of Einsatzgruppe C and local Ukrainian auxiliary policemen.
