MOGILEV-PODOLSKY (Mohyliv-Podilskyy) GHETTO

"MOGILEV-PODOLSKY GHETTO"

In a Russian language essay entitled, “Mogilev-Podolsk Ghetto”, the author describes the belated exodus of the local population, including Jews, from Mogilev-Podolsky, attempting to escape  the Germans and Romanians. In August 1941 the Romanian military created a Jewish ghetto. In addition to local Jews, it was filled with others from Romania, Bessarabia, and Bukovina (many from Dorokhoy). Infectious diseases, starvation, and death ensued. In the Fall, 1942 residents of the Pechersky concentration camp were moved to the Mogilev-Podolsky ghetto.
