The scouting parties who patrolled during the night in the former Ghetto again
reported movements of the Jews in the burned out and destroyed streets and
courtyards. In order to be better able to take the Jews by surprise, the
scouting parties at night tie rags and other stuff round their shoes. In
skirmishes between the scouting parties and Jews, 30 Jews were shot.
We captured 1 carbine, 3 pistols, and some ammunition. During the conflagration
a considerable amount of stored ammunition exploded.
