| 4. Jews
Simferopol, Yevpatoriya, Alushta, Karasubazar, Kerch and Feodosiya and other districts of the western Crimea have been cleared of Jews. From 16 November through 15 December 1941, 17,645 Jews, 2,504 Krimtschaks, 824 gypsies, and 212 Communists and partisans have been shot. Altogether 75,881 persons have been executed. Rumors about executions in other areas rendered action at Simferopol very difficult. Reports about actions against Jews gradually filter through from fleeing Jews, Russians, and also from unguarded talks of German soldiers. |

| Jews. Efforts are being
made to purge the eastern territory of Jews as completely as possible.
Shootings were carried out in such a way as to attract as little public attention as possible. Up to the present, this method was successful almost everywhere. Even in towns where large scale shootings had been carried out, time and place of the killings of the Jews never transpired. In the population and even among the remaining Jews the impression prevailed that the Jews had been resettled in other parts of the eastern territory. Esthonia has already been cleansed of Jews. |
