In early August 1941 between 150 and 300 (according to different reports and testimonies) Tomashpol Jews of all ages and both sexes were collected by German rural and local auxiliary policemen, ostensibly to be sent to work. They were taken to the Jewish cemetery, some distance southwest of Tomashpol. There, in a large ravine, the victims were machine-gunned to death by members of Einsatzgruppe D. After the establishment of the Romanian occupation regime in Tomashpol, the surviving Jews of Tomashpol were allowed to rebury the bodies of their relatives and friends in several mass graves at the Jewish cemetery.
