The Dzyatlava massacres (Zhetel massacres in Yiddish, Diatłowo massacres, Dziatława massacres; or Zdzięcioł massacres in Polish) were two consecutive mass shooting actions committed three months apart during the Holocaust. The local German gendarmerie (aided by a Lithuanian unit and the Belarusian Auxiliary Police battalion) surrounded the village of Zdzięcioł (nominally Polish until the end of World War II, between 1939–1945) and ordered Jews to leave their houses. The victims were then stretched out face down on the main square and at the break of dawn, transported by lorries out of town. About 1,000–1,200 Jews were murdered in the Kurpiesze forest on April 30, 1942. The second massacre took place on August 6, 1942 during the liquidation of the Ghetto. Some 1,500–2,000 Jews, possibly up

  • The Dzyatlava massacres (Zhetel massacres in Yiddish, Diatłowo massacres, Dziatława massacres; or Zdzięcioł massacres in Polish) were two consecutive mass shooting actions committed three months apart during the Holocaust. The local German gendarmerie (aided by a Lithuanian unit and the Belarusian Auxiliary Police battalion) surrounded the village of Zdzięcioł (nominally Polish until the end of World War II, between 1939–1945) and ordered Jews to leave their houses. The victims were then stretched out face down on the main square and at the break of dawn, transported by lorries out of town. About 1,000–1,200 Jews were murdered in the Kurpiesze forest on April 30, 1942. The second massacre took place on August 6, 1942 during the liquidation of the Ghetto. Some 1,500–2,000 Jews, possibly up to 3,000 by different source (perhaps a combined number), were murdered at the Jewish cemetery. The town of Zdzięcioł was located in Nowogródek Voivodeship of the Second Republic prior to the Nazi-Soviet invasion of Poland. See also: Zdzięcioł Ghetto
