On August 17, 1942, the German administration began to arrest the Jews from the Timoshevets collective farm. They loaded them onto trucks and took them to a bridge on the railway that led to Novorossiysk, not far from the village of Timashovsk. On that day, immediately upon arrival at the site, the German soldiers shot twenty-one Jews – including adults, children, and elderly people.
