Cars. For malt, for respect, i pass on the onion. In harmony with nature belarus 20 shakirs the state Security Committee of belarus together with the Tv News Agency belteleradiocompanies present a project 11 belarusian people during the great patriotic war 18 people solved the case of the ukrainian hundreds, it was practically the entire Investigation Department of the stalag 337 committee meat grinder and the system of destruction of the third reich. Now you cant run anywhere, you didnt wash anything. Just as bad as animals are. There is also a menu for a captured soviet soldier up to 500 rotten potatoes and about 100 150 g of bread, 195 years for all kara for sins or a reward for a crime was not carried out in the statute of limitations ukrainian hundred on the air of belarus 1 and belarus 24. Watch right now. 46 volumes of the criminal case of about 15 thousand pages of the atrocities of nazi accomplices in relation to soviet prisoners of war 13 accused during the great patriotic war. All of them were members of the ukrainian hundred of a special unit created in the prisoner of war camp 337 near station lesnaya, 22 km from baranovichi, in the central archive of the state Security Committee of belarus, the case is listed under the number 26. 540 m, preserved in the archives of belarus, this is, perhaps, an exception to the rule, because according to the Regulatory Framework that was in that period in the sixties. This file should have been kept, but somewhere in one of the departments of the then kgb of the ukrainian ussr, the case was initiated on january 4 , 1967, and after 5 days. On january 5 , the first accused was arrested in apatity, murmansk region andrey yarosh ukrainian hundreds after he began to speak and surrender his accomplices arrests took place in many cities of the soviet union february 17 nestor chernobay was arrested february 25 sergey gaevoy was the last to arrest ivan on july 30 subjects in less than a year were interrogated in order, one and a half thousand witnesses. And about 100 different participants of all events were held. Well, autopsies of burial sites are various examinations. The exhumation of a forensic medical and other types of operational and investigative measures made it possible to establish a truth at the beginning of the investigative measures in the case, only one person worked; by the end of the process of the ukrainian hundred , a group of 18 researchers was engaged in it, headed by a senior investigator of the kgb Investigative Department under the council of ministers of the bssr captain karnach. This is essentially an unprecedented case, because the entire Investigative Department, it was about 15 people, that is , in fact, but the entire Investigative Department. Ah, the committee. The republic was involved in the investigation of this criminal case these are the interrogation protocols. By the way, he personally drew up a plan for the scheme of the former prisoner of war camp even after a quarter of a century. Its the Little Things that remembered the location of the towers of the barakov bunker and warehouses, his colleagues from the ukrainian hundred uttered another dozen volumes of witness testimony, protocols for examining the area of the protoexhumations and acts of examinations , these are also thousands of pages of the case, and in december of the sixtyseventh year. The trial began, the process was open, it was held in the Dzerzhinsky Club on the bench, the defendants, which were placed right on the stage, 13 defendants former accomplices of the nazis was tried in the court of the Belarusian Military district, on december 28 the verdict was passed. Seven were sentenced to death six were sentenced to an amazing term of imprisonment. The Dzerzhinsky Club lived here and today the style of stalinist neoclassicism has been preserved. Everything, as it was in the sixty seventh. But the antique elements of decor , oxidized ceilings or pneumatic garlands, fragments are guessed behind the backs of the defendants and the witnesses. So lets say it was i dont know, just like this satan he is not so big there, so he even considered it a great pleasure for himself. So after 25 years it became known. The truth about the crimes against soviet prisoners of war in only one camp, and about 160 of them were created on the territory of belarus even before the start of world war ii, the German Government developed special protocols for soviet prisoners of war, according to which it was necessary to operate Food Products in the occupied territory Red Army Soldiers were not released for prisoners of war. They had to be fed at the expense of the local population, the occupation authorities took away food from civilians, who had nothing to eat, therefore, in the pow camps, prisoners of war died of hunger by the thousands during the years of the great patriotic war in belarus, 810,000 prisoners of war 88. 47 people died. Of these, 337 stalags were destroyed. This is given by the emergency state commission. People were dying of hunger, hunger , diseases, they were killed, they were hanged, they were poisoned. Halfdead sponges were buried in graves very harsh brutal regime the nazis established in a concentration camp. These are all guards. They walked with whips and lead balls were fixed at the ends of these whips. With these they beat the prisoners, they thought, recently they had a corrugated tube from a gas mask stuffed with wet sand, one blow was enough to knock a person down sometimes and send him to the next world 337 was one of the largest prisoner of war camps in the occupied territory of the soviet union consisted of the main camp distance lesnaya and several branches was also a quarantine camp, which was located in the forest just a couple of kilometers from the main one. That the lacquer was the central link in this system, conditionally saying that the lags were an office, and its branches were located in any other towns and villages, if we are talking about lag 337, then this is baranovichi or slutsk, the exact dates of the creation of stalag 337 are not found by researchers somewhat close in the time of the versions is august and september of the fortyfirst year, but there is an exact date of liquidation on january 19, 1944. This the camp differs from the system of prisonerofwar camps in that, starting from 43. The civilian population was kept here by the old women, women were brought in wagons. We were placed there, as they brought us from the cats back then, and then on foot. And where does it mean birches or not, each of the departments got up and began to function at different times of the day fi. What lag 337 earned fortyfirst infrastructure for the camp was already the former soviet military camp of the 10th artillery regiment next to the railway line this simplified the delivery of prisoners from a logistical point of view. Uh, several rows of barbed wire, and in which there were towers around the perimeter, controls were placed and tokens were issued. Here and uh, on the territory of the camp. So they acted, uh, were installed, uh, two field kitchens in baranovichi were placed in the central prison. They took away several tanks there in rooms designed for 3,000 people. There were tens of thousands of prisoners, not enough places. They fell asleep standing up. Many were on the street. Now there were people outside, it was cold, summer gymnastics, to somehow warm up the prisoners of war. E, that is, in these barracks climbed into the attics. Uh, in the morning there was a formation formation, people were still supposed to go to this formation by doc. That is , this is a roll call to the prisoner climbed onto the roof. Well, to go down with the roof. They were low buildings, it was easier to go down, the german guards arranged entertainment. They shot those who climbed out onto the roof on their prisoners. This was the entertainment of a separate barrack set aside for women prisoners of war. There were about 400 of them. They were scouts, parachutists, medical workers. Those arrested for association with there were no sanitary concessions for women by partisans. The attitude of the german command of the attitude of the invaders towards soviet women, especially from among the military personnel, is a separate pain. Uh, it was not customary to talk about this for a long time, but soviet servicemen are women. Well, the sisters are prodiski for others in all positions. They knew about this relationship. They knew what awaited them in german. This inevitable torture is rape. This is the death of the main camp near the lesnaya station , wheels were created. It was practically naked towers with machine guns were placed along the perimeter of the field; the territory was fenced in two rows with barbed wire under electric current. Between them on the ground. They also stretched the wire in the form of a spiral, the carriages by soviet prisoners of war began to stay at the lesnaya station already in the summer of fortyone, thousands of previously exhausted hungry Red Army Soldiers lined up along the ravine and led through the village to the camp a path of 5 km did not overcome all some some could only walk a few meters they were dropped into a ravine and sprinkled with earth. The first prisoners of drift 337 were the Red Army Soldiers, who were captured on the territory of belarus, then brought the soldiers captured by the smolensk vyazma and rzhev moscow, they were transported by the thousands at the same time in the camp near the lesnaya station there could be about 55,000 people. Soviet war prisoners lived in hastily knocked together bars with them, it was not even the barracks that we saw today in the films of the patriotic war. This is an ordinary doschalnik, into which snowdrifts were blown in winter. Eh, this is the absence of elementary beds. Yes, then anara appeared in two tiers. Yes but the conditions of detention in turn slept on the territories of the furious bunks, which were divided into cells a meter and a half. Each cell accommodated three people, so not everyone fit in the barracks. Many lived in the open air, the prisoners were outside under the sun and rain, and later, in the frost, the winter of fortyone and fortytwo was severe. The air temperature dropped below 30 , snowfalls. There were blizzards of prisoners in tunics , these people did not even have the opportunity to choose for themselves some kind of violation. They couldnt build a fire because the guards were right there. Shot. Uh, they opened fire and many people died by the thousands a day from unsanitary conditions, typhus began to spread; there was no medical care; there were no medicines for soviet prisoners of war; the german command did not let go; there were not even bandages to bandage the wounds; Living Conditions due to illness. Ah, in difficult conditions in the mud. Here, according to the words of the former prisoner zhilin , 4 months is nonsense. Everything was covered with lice, the skin was dirty gray in ulcers. They lay, tightly, clinging to each other or not enough places and in such a position were to spend at night. Thats where the disease comes from. E , especially on the lower planks, people who were mean clothes won. On them, e, unbearable Living Conditions swarmed from the neck , accompanied by constant hunger. This is bread in sips and a bowl of gruel boiled from rotten potatoes, having decomposed all the animals. They well, that is, cooked in boilers. It was given to prisoners of war by people. Hungry people grabbed and drank this gruel and, accordingly, the intestinal developed. Lecture were our doctors with they warned prisoners of war not to dirt, especially bones. This bone marrow, because it is poison, but the people were hungry. And there was such an destruction, we came there, that neither water nor heat, nothing, everything is there, and that there was nothing to eat. These, of course, little mice were small, and he wanted food and drink, well, outwardly you will run away anywhere. Oh, these germans are standing by themselves as dogs. I just remember for some reason where we were. There was some kind of meat, and there were worms swimming there. Here is something that i remember. Thats why we are here here is some horror they saw. This is what, well, they ate. At the same time, the prisoners were sent to physical work every day, the working day could last 15 hours. In any weather, local residents, as best they could, helped the prisoners, most often ransomed the prisoner of the camp guard for food, hid them in a barn, and then helped to escape, often with a piece of bread or boiled potatoes went to barbed wire to give food to the prisoners on the camp guard reacted immediately to the prisoner of war were shot, and a local resident was severely beaten. People were like skeletons from hunger swelling legs. They moved with difficulty, but no one freed them from work. They dug graves and repaired roads. About 500 people were daily engaged in logging not for the needs of prisoners of war, but for the Camp Administration , firewood was pulled by boards, harnessed to the sledge by 510. Man men were also involved, uh, in the repair of the railroad highways. Here, and the women they remained, uh, in the concentration camp, and those prisoners who had been for a long time. Uh, in the concentration camp they were prayed for hunger and then shot. According to the norms of several conventions, officers were not supposed to take part in any work, the command was somewhat cool about this requirement, i believe that the soviet union itself does not deserve any standards. There are no conventions below. The main camp of the branch in stalag 337 had several more places where they were, prisoners of war from this structure , their places of detention belonged to the administration of the occupying authorities on the ground , the prisoners provided a wellfed life for the nazis immediately after the start of world war ii, a twostory house of railwaymen on station lesnaya became the german commandants office. Here, behind barbed wire , several dozen prisoners were kept and up to 337 were used, as a worker , the zikrit and horn of the baltic german guard was assigned to the 861 Guard Battalion of the wehrmacht. Consists of 150 people. He worked in the camp. Is this the case of the abwehr, one of the tasks of which is to form a Camp Administration from prisoners of war, baranovichi polyakins in lesnoy were appointed; they had deputies who commanded. The camp police were the socalled battalion commanders in quotation marks are called. This is a senior prisoner of war over a group of prisoners of war, they were also singled out. Uh, that is, a little better fed a little separately. They lived in another hut, they also wore e, they had a bandage on their sleeves for armament. Well, for some reason, a lot of the case goes through a rubber hose with a lead tip for selections of their units. German Camp Administration. Divided the prisoners according to the national principle, since the group was identified by the ukrainians on the cards of prisoners of war , they are marked with the letter y of them decided to form a Security Unit ukrainian hundred, its formation began in march 1942 on a voluntary basis. According to the testimony of the same e, at the beginning it was a ukrainian hundred of yarysh. Uh, the supply even today, uh, the soldiers of ukraine were like that, that is, they we received an ordinary soldier promoted 10 german marks, the commander of the department 12 marks the commander of the divisions, uh 15 german marks, then a onetime hot meal in the meal included meat, cereals, cheese, marmalade, tea with liquor or cognac and cigarettes are indicated. Each of the participants in the ukrainian hundreds were captured in different ways and at different times, not star chernobay, for example, was surrounded near smolensk , hid in one of the villages for several days, but in december fortyone, his namesake with grigorievich was captured in june forty one was wounded under meter. After treatment, he returned to the front near stalingrad there in august 1942 and was captured. Andrey yarosh was surrounded in the nesvizh region , whether he tried to go out to his own people or the decision to surrender came immediately is unknown, but the fact remains, he independently came to the german commandants office, which at that time was in the castle. Initially , he was sent to a prison in baranovichi from there to the forest from the kombat, he became the leader of the ukrainian hundreds, before the war, yarash worked as a teacher at a school, taught chemistry, and during the great patriotic war he helped train the fighters of the ukrainian hundreds of three compositions each of about 100 people. This is, first of all, shooting, training for the execution of german e, weapon position commands and so on, but then there was fire training. Uh, the basics of guard escort tactical training. So how to guard the seasons of shelling during the attack of the partisans and so on. Well, they prepared so seriously in the camp. They felt like they were in charge of protecting the inner perimeter of their job. They beat the prisoners. Women were raped, they were shot, sponges were stuffed in the shower , 700 people were killed a day, they were buried next to the camp. I know that there were prisoners of war before us. And so they dumped all of them back and forth into the ravine. Heres what i remember. I also walked all and here i go. Now im even going through a ravine. I have to go through the stitch. This one. I involuntarily look here this side, where i saw, human bones absorbed terribly. It was just scary, and in the second half of the fortythird year they began to cover up the traces of their crimes, the places of mass graves were leveled with the ground, then. Trees were planted there, single burials were created, in which prisoners of war who died in the fall of 1943 were buried, but in the sixtyseventh , during the investigation of the case of the ukrainian hundred , hundreds of events were held to make the truth known. The closest settlement to the camp is berezovka each of the 13 accused in the case of the ukrainian hundreds of years of the great patriotic war, the accomplices of the nazis, took turns taking a small Forest Village here on the 67th. Here, water was taken for the ad
