Deportation of Czernowitz Jews to Transnistria starts anew
Deportations to Transnistria restarted on 7 June 1942 for the Jews of Czernowitz. By 28 June, 4000-5000 Jews had been deported. Some were handed over to the SS and taken across the River Bug, where most of them were murdered. By November 1943, no more than 500 remained alive. All the children deported to Transnistria were either shot, or perished from cold, hunger or disease.
