Murder Story of Brześć nad Bugiem Jews at the Cemetery between Moskovskaya and Dolgaya Streets in Brześć nad Bugiem

Mass shootings of the Jews were carried out also in the city itself - in front of all the residents. There were three more mass shooting sites in the city: the cemetery located at the corner of Moskovskaya and Dolgaya Streets. … Kokhanovskiy, an engineer, testified that he witnessed the mass shooting of the Jews, on one night in mid-November 1942, which took place at the cemetery located at the corner of Moskovskaya and Dolgaya Streets. There were many Jews there, shivering in the cold. As was the case in the area of Bronnaya Gora, they were forced to lie at the bottom of the pit where they were shot. That is how the women and children were also killed. Here were killed Zilberfar, the former planning engineer of the oblkomkhoz [the regional communal services department], together with his family (his wife and three-year-old child); Berezovskiy, the electrical engineer of the oblkomkhoz, together with his mother and sister; and many others. According to numerous testimonies of civilians, the victims of this brutal massacre met their deaths with great dignity and profound contempt for the German monsters.
