On 10 November 1939 Germans murdered a few hundred Jewish people (including newborn babies and the elderly) in Ostrów Mazowiecka. [...] The invaders herded all Jews (local ones and those who arrived from other areas) along with their families, towards a field; there, they had to dig out ditches and undress themselves; next, they were all executed. After the war with Soviet Union broke out in 1941, Soviet prisoners of war exhumed remains of the executed, and Germans took them in an unknown direction.
