In March 20, 1942, all 800 residents of the Khislavichi ghetto, including 290 children, were brought to a ravine, 100-150 meters northwest of the town. They were undressed and savagely shot to death. Soviet prisoners of the war buried the bodies in a ditch. Some 100 Jews from the area of Stodolishche were shot together with Khislavichi’s Jews.
