Over the course of two days, 33,771 Jews were murdered in the Babi Yar ravine, located on the outskirts of Kiev, the capital of Ukraine (USSR). A week after the Germans captured Kiev, they decided to massacre the city’s Jews.
The Jews were ordered to assemble in the morning for resettlement. But as they were marched to the ravine, they were forced to surrender any valuables, take off their clothes, and move towards the edge of the ravine in groups of ten.
As they reached the edge, they were shot by Einsatzgruppe C soldiers with the assistance of local collaborators. After two days of shooting, the bodies were covered with a thin layer of dirt. Among the victims was Anyuta Lifshitz (pictured). She was just 13 years old.

Russian poet Yevguni Yevatushenko: Don’t miss reading this shocking poem by #BabiYar
No memorial in babi yar;
Just sour side. And I’m scared.
I feel like a Jew in the desert today
What of Egypt that survived. They cross me
And my hands keep the stigma.
I think dreyfus, waste,
For whom they judge, spit, imprison;
But standing opposes slander
and Palestine cry. with the tip
Look at your umbrellas on my face
My defenseless women are coming
Brussels lace with fabric.
Or I’m also a kid in Bielostok.
Soon the pogromo bursts.
Dropped blood covers the ground.

“Kill the Jews: You will save Russia
Cutie gets mad with my mom.
Another man takes me out. I pray in vain
Prayers are lost in nothing.

And just need each other

They all hate me
because of your hatred
I am a true Russian and will stay.
