In January 1943 they started liquidating the ghettos; since then, almost every day the Jews were taken from the streets and their homes and put in prison in Ternopil; next, they were taken to the Jewish cemetery and later to the outskirts of Petryków for execution. Between January 1943 and May 1943 about 6,000 Jews were murdered; only the young who were still able to work were later taken to the labour camp in Ternopil. The camp was liquidated and so were the prisoners; Gestapo officers took them to Petryków between 23 July 1943 and 6 August 1943 for execution |
