An estimated 100,000 – 150,000 people, including Jews and non-Jews, were murdered by Nazis at the Babi Yar ravine in Kyiv, Ukraine between 1941 and 1943. The largest and first massacre took place on September 29-30, 1941, the Jewish High Holiday of Yom Kippur. Nearly 34,000 Jewish men, women, and children were killed in two days. In this USC Shoah Foundation compilation, Jewish survivors Lyudmila Tkach and Sarra Gezentsvey, and Muslim rescuer Mirgazim Sabirov, recall the massacre at Babi Yar.

Lyudmila and Mirgazim’s full testimonies are available to view, and Sarra’s testimony transcript is available to read, at https://vhaonline.usc.edu/peoplesearch/peopleSearch (free account registration required).
