Ion Antonescu, the prime minister of Romania and a Nazi ally, began transporting Jews there from several districts under Romanian sovereignty. Around 90,000 of some 185,000 Jews deported to Transnistria were murdered, according to Yad Vashem.
During Artzi’s missions in Transnistria, he persuaded parents to hand over their children, whom he then smuggled to Bucharest.
Artzi led several daring rescue missions as a leader of the Jewish resistance. He rescued Jewish orphans from ghettos in Transnistria, helped illegally transport Jews to Palestine in immigration ships, and served as a leader for Jewish communities detained by the British Mandate in Cypriot internment camps.
