people during the great patriotic war cold march forty-fourth death camp in the open only cry around the sky, honoring the cold of the path lay, as they say, for some reason everyone watched the wehrmacht's crime against the civilian population near the sky. now it is from here that the belarusian people, old people, women and children, are a human shield on the front line. security

criminal cases stored in the central archive of the state security committee number 26571 and 26 578 43 and 35 volumes, respectively, belong to the state secrets of the republic of belarus they were seen only by those who kept and those who kept the cases seventies of the last century, the accused former policemen of the third company, 11 guard police troop battalion. several of the first archival ions in 74

, and the former policemen who immediately after the war hid their participation in punitive actions on the territory of belarus were convicted, but the guys were released. nazi accomplices were tried under the article for treason, in fact, only for taking an oath of allegiance to the third reich, as a rule, the accused were sentenced to 25 years, but many served only part of the sentence of 10 years some five, and some only 3 years under the law on crimes against humanity for the crime of leaving the war and, in particular, for shooting all the people. nobody is their responsibility. not released after the war. the former police were in no hurry to reliably tell neither researchers nor close relatives about their service in nazi germany units. after all , those against whom they fought were not alive, and

the dead cannot testify. age passed throughout the soviet union , new facts were discovered, trophy and archival documents testimonies of witnesses, yes, and the criminals themselves quite actively betrayed their colleagues and baptized. conducted interrogations recorded new episodes of the crime in this way in the seventies and reached the employees of the 11th police battalion of the ussr troops by that time. many have already changed their place of residence more than once, hiding from other people's names. it took them, by the way, sometimes they've been together for years to twist around and get them to tell the truth, and the truth

is for them. did they understand what it was? i understand, what is already mortal concerns crime. i don't understand that for them especially for those who served 8.10 years and practically options he didn't have a heinous crime. they did, of course, nobody wanted to. to be responsible for this the eleventh security police battalion of the ss troops was created at the beginning of the forty-third year in the smolensk region, then it was redeployed to belarus, it consisted of three companies in each of about 100 policemen, the third relatives were elite, they formed it last, as a rule, they enrolled low gardens . each of them hit this third company of this battalion in different ways. someone before that first was an agent of the mystery field police, someone served in the local auxiliary police, but in the end they all ended up in this third company. all of them were bombed. all of them took an oath of

allegiance to the fascist reich. nazi accomplices from the 11th security police battalion took part in the liquidation of the minsk getta, the destruction of the prisoners of trostenets and the bobruisk prison, participated in the top-secret operation of one thousand five to destroy the traces of nazi crimes. and were also involved in the deportation of people to death camps in the area of ​​\u200b\u200bthe settlement azach, they left people practically to die. they saw that there was no food, no food, no barracks, nothing. that is, people were thrown near the swamp to apparent death, but they didn’t want to be told about it. the death camp in the polissya swamps was created by hitler's personal order. the fact is that at the end of february of the forty-fourth year, an extremely difficult situation developed for the heavenly army. the front line passed in the area of ​​​​the settlement azarichi. on one bank of the river, the soviet troops on the

other, the german troops prevented the wehrmacht from holding back the defenses, the swampy terrain, the harpies and general hozbach, who commanded the fifty-sixth tank corps, decide to withdraw troops to new positions about 10 kilometers away, but this requires permission from berlin hozbach, who before the start of world war ii, he was hitler's personal adjutant sends a petition for scams, he gives the go-ahead, but into the swamp. it was decided to drive rokossovsky's soldiers as alive civilian population. at the beginning of march 1944, a group of german microbiologists headed by professor blumenthal arrived in the polissya region. their task was to determine the place where bacteriological weapons could be used. after inspecting the wehrmacht defense line, blumenthal points to swamps in the area of ​​​​the village, azarichi. his assistant, gaiman, proposes to expand the epidemiological defects. to create two more camps in the villages of dert and boletus, and when we

talk about the death camp today, we mean zarich. three camps at once, their territory occupied about five hectares here, it was planned to drive almost 20,000 people, but the plan was exceeded by 2.5 times in forest swamps. they rounded up 50,000 old women and children of the death camp in the area of ​​\u200b\u200bnine settlements, and the barn and boletus were experimental similar plans to create throughout belarus in places. where, in the opinion of the nazi leadership, it will be extremely difficult to contain the advance of the council. a tail about people infected with typhus will help stop the soldiers of the red the army was still in elemental, when he reported to hitler about the creation of these camps, he said that if this very natural environment is a swamp and the conditions that they will create for the prisoners. that is, without medical care, unclean water, without food. here

, chain typhus will begin to develop very quickly, if this epidemic does not, uh, develop as quickly as necessary, we will already bring people infected with coplementifus here and 7,000 people were brought here in germany at this time a special brochure is being published manuals, where the algorithm of actions is described in detail. how to carry out the deportation of the civilian population? how to infect defenseless people with a rash type, and how to create a barrier from children at the forefront of defense of any command of the front there are front-line reconnaissance, therefore attention that the scouts still found out that there are lags and will cooperatively use artillery, because to adjust the fire in such a way, to get into the franchise and not hurt. let's say this camp. it was practically very difficult. in general, they were very hopeful that way they will be fixed. there were the first cases when bacteriological weapons were used. here in world war ii. this is a crime lcd

says. here although in my opinion it was signed before. there are international documents that they apply here, well, they applied. people are driven into the swamp not only from the nearby areas of the german lists of almost 150 settlements in polissya, gomel, mogilev, oryol, smolensk and bryansk regions, so-called transit camps are created, the initial gathering place civilian population. we got to the first sorting point at the yellow station, then we were driven towards the front line - this is towards kolenkovich. we were in two or three more storage and sorting camps and, as a rule, they drove us. from village to village, so that the germans could spend the night in their own huts, but we

spent the night on the streets. sometimes at night, because the escorts themselves were afraid of bombing, e.g. soviet aviation, and such a case was mentioned. when, uh, several families, uh, two soviet aircraft. uh, we saw the movement of this one columns, they tried, uh, to somehow attack, but it is clear that it was not the civilian population that was to be attacked, but this particular guard was hiding in the crowd ; they simply said that in early march they moved out of the location of honor to the polissya region; their job was to escort the civilian population to the gathering place. so they called the path of tens of kilometers on foot on the road all the time with russian speech, damn it, everything, why because themselves the germans could not

talk to us, as my grandfather said. they are across the face. they tell him, and the policemen are already commanding us, so there were a lot of policemen. that's accompanied by someone a and a big one. some were driven out on foot. and so, as it was the end of february, the bard and the area into the one that they drove them. it was swampy, then those children who were killing out of strength and could not walk. walking on melt water through small swamps, they simply fell exhausted, and, as it is written in the protocol of interrogations, they choked in the water and remained a 40-kilometer path from zhlobin and ore proteins up to the speeches and today they call the road of death on both sides of the thousands of exterminated people. they died under the wheels of german cars , they died of exhaustion, they were killed because they

could not walk, when god knows how armed they shoot in front of their mother, three children are shot, because she could not carry them to the camp yet. well, now it will be easier for you to pick up. the darkness of the women they are simply on the second day. here these conditions went crazy, because tearing screams. uh madness, that's all these conditions led to the fact that the human psyche could not withstand all three camps were built according to a standard project; it was created in the course of time. the nazis lacked a rectangular area in six rows fenced with barbed wire along the perimeter of the tower with machine gunners , the approaches to the camp were mined in the area of ​​​​the azarian swamps, the wehrmacht used a very complex landmine system, exactly the same mines thirty fifth infantry division, which was commanded

by lieutenant general riecher. launched under a piece in the polissya swamps. they repeated the experiment, only overlooked the fact that explosive devices. they are used not against the army, but against the civilian population. there were no buildings on the territory of the camp, no barracks or a hut, and people were in the open air in the swamps, around the clock, many did not have warm clothes, they were taken away at the entrance. food and documents were also taken there; it was forbidden to kindle a fire immediately . i am a bonfire now. i can only light it during the day or as it dawned at six o'clock seven so that it was already visible, and in the evening i'm not even closer, everything will be scary for me, no warming. why because it was forbidden there, passing it, firstly, in front of the german trenches and it was impossible

to find out that the germans would not find these camps, in general, they even forbade even talking a lot noisily, they even brought the dead infected with typhus and unloaded them to the living, the disease developed rapidly, was accompanied high temperature. people were in agony. some women, for example, they could not stand it, they threw themselves on the wire, they threw themselves on the guards. and then, of course. they just shoot these puddles which thawed, they were the source of that water, and this many puddles were also spreading bacteria, because it was snowing , which thawed and, in general, lay nearby , and among them were those who fell ill with typhus, therefore, as if the whole spread, not only from above in the evening sprinkled this. something but he sprinkled it and says it's

warm, and so and he was already sad like he was wet , more or less sprinkled, he says, and everything is frosty in the morning , and it says a lot of heaps are frozen. remaining lifeless, prisoners, tried to hold on together villages. families, far from each other there were almost no men left, there were almost no many children from 0 to 15 years old , there were practically no dry areas with them, on a hummock, they tried to arrange children. there is not much water there, there are fir trees, uh, they lay down on them and did not hide, and at night it was still snowing. that's when we woke up raked this snow. this is, in general, getting out from under this snow. well, those who were powerless are already simply, and not disconnected for a certain number of hours there. well, who, too, many prisoners were knee-deep for days on end, in swamp water, even at night they did not freeze. people

got frostbite on their feet. mortality was colossal day more than 1,000 people all the time, so some could not stand it. i don't know how they got there. here, but, most likely, that there were three of them. and i was small. so they may have held me in their arms and alone even on the ground. can i tell this assumption is my girl, but she was born with us, only a week has passed for her husband. i don’t know , my mother was very weak now, which is probably why she was sick. she is so uh, the nazis went to the pit so grandfathers she said, i even remember this, she says, the foam was light. he lay down and wanted to bury this girl separately. and he took it out, so it was already full of people. the camp at the forefront of defense existed for only 10 days, but during this time over 20,000 people died, the liberation came on march 19,

44. one of the archers says, we waited through the already cleared passage we entered the camp, then it says, well, even compare, as if angels were with him. when lager e was liberated, our intelligence agencies found the agents. hmm? and that is, uh hmm german counterintelligence, but one of them, fyodor rastorguev, was tracked down, and he later testified that before sending me here, it means that i was informed

that here the bulk of people infected with typhus had been vaccinated. and my task was that, uh, so i had to watch how the red army would act after the german army retreated. and that how will the camp in the azarich area spread with me and the 65th army under the command of general batov and the troops of the first belarusian front under the under the leadership of rokossovsky soviet soldiers, the prisoners saw in russia those who could still move ran towards them and were blown up by mines, then ah, they cleared the paths and slowly began to lead out. here, then we have a grandfather. yeah, here's a soldier together and ours were put on a car. so they didn’t take my mother, i remember this, that someone was there or gabaril that i

was pulling somewhere, there was nowhere to take the dead woman alive. well, and there, it seems, people moved in and put it, put it on it, after all, a million proved that the glass was a loss. she breathe that she is alive not far from the camp dozens of military field hospitals were deployed in the nearest forests and settlements; anti-epidemiological measures were urgently carried out to stop the spread of the disease; we were released there. we were in rechitsa at the military, lord, after the lord. we returned to gomel as we had an apartment there, there were separate rooms for us in the orphanage and we were cured by doctors and military doctors. after the camp was liberated, an emergency state commission arrived here to help. she explored the area and removed

soil and water samples. after some time, the acts of the chmc were published in the newspaper pravda. in addition, a special commission also worked, which included ponomarenko, chairman of the council of people's commissars of the bssr, his deputy nadezhda grekova, and a classic of russian literature, folk poet yakubkov. the commission reflected in its report that the air temperature in the period from march 8 to march 19 in the area of ​​\u200b\u200bthe settlement, a zarechye, ranged from zero to -15 °. when a person was in the open air, the average life expectancy was three days it was impossible to survive in such conditions without food, heat and water for 10 days. this commission also became part of the criminal cases against nazi accomplices from the 11th security police battalion of the ses army after the ozarich. they returned to the location of the unit in bobruisk, continued their service, and during the liberation operation of bagration , knowing that they would have to answer, they fled from the ss about this

during interrogation, the accused described how they got rid of the nazi uniform. and how they went to serve in the red army. they are very good they understood that they were saying harmony, they said what they were for it and what they were expected to do for it. therefore, if they had already begun to testify, then they told everything to the house, even we were already scared to obey the population in the death camps. in the area of ​​​​the international tribunal in nuremberg called the most terrible and brutal crime of the wehrmacht during the years of world war ii, as deputy chairman? regardless of what you vazar, there was no crematorium for the murderers, but this is one of the most cruel camps aimed at

exterminating the civilian population. in forty-six during the minsk trial, one of the creators of the death camp, general richert, was sentenced to death hanged at the minsk hippodrome in december cancelled. the death penalty, criminals from the wehrmacht received 25 years. many were released under amnesties without suffering serious punishment. hiding behind the fact that it is, well, somewhere even for some kind of benefit people, or something, they were rounded up so that they wouldn’t get hit, they are on the battlefield. i am now in the zaretsk camp, as an integral part of the genocide, namely the genocide of the belarusian people by the soviet, employees from the ss police battalion, had to answer after

30 years. they were searched throughout the soviet union . kashnikov was found in the irkutsk region. he worked at the bratsk thermal power plant dadunov lived michurinsky worked as an electric welder at the lenin plant, each of them had families after the war, and children were born. and those who were originally convicted of being in collaborationist formations. e sat. yes, families started. when we arrived once in the chernihiv region, one of these police officers was arrested. the son is there, well, he arranged it, why is he climbing? why is he such a hard worker? he really was. he worked well, lived well, brought up children, but was not married. they did not immediately begin

to speak, they spent hundreds of interrogations over the years, even from the protocols it can be seen that the investigator's working day passed next to the suspect. interrogations. started around 9:30 and ended around at seven o'clock in the evening, the testimonies told me quite frankly , you have no idea, all this time, firstly, we were waiting for us to be found and brought to justice. secondly, one way or another, we returned to these cases, because it is very difficult for many nazi accomplices from the third company of the eleventh security police battalion to forget. the ss were sentenced to capital punishment, the sentences were carried out , some were sentenced to 10-15 years in labor camps with confiscation of all property the awards they received and the deprivation of military ranks. many tried, both from these former police officers and from their relatives, to appeal the

sentences. say that they are under duress. they were there and they were forced to. however, all those testimonies of their personal testimony proved that their participation was voluntary in the case, there are extracts from the decision of the presidium of the supreme council of the bssr dated july 13, 1977 signed by secretary chagin to reject the petition for pardoning the crime against the civilian population, they are not subject to appeal and there is no statute of limitations.

widely. the topic under discussion analyzes the facts , gives arguments and refutes the rumors of any an important decision at the state level should have a clear goal, why we are doing this, and the end result should be better for people. my name is igor tur. it was my propaganda watch the new releases on belarus 24 tv channel. creative internships for belarusians abroad are held in minsk for the first time. what is the purpose of such meetings and what is important today? this is the cultural platform. well, uh, first of all, of course. it can be called cultural diplomacy, belarusians living in many countries of the world, this is practically 3 1/2 million oe, who live on all continents and in almost all countries of the world, they come here to feed on this belarusian belarusian and take away their countries of residence in

order to adequately popularize to tell in belarus how beautiful belarusian culture. you correctly said these internships have been held since 2016, and we started one internship a year. uh, to which we invited 20 people, but there was such a huge demand. these creative hard these activities, that we eventually switched to two internships a year for 20 people, and after the pandemic, when everyone got bored and everyone was eager to just move to our beautiful belarus, we switched to 30 people and this was not enough and this year we we switched to the number 40. nevertheless, the queue for the next internship is also lining up, because there are a lot of people who want such events filled with the program. here is this year at the hour this year. eh, of course, since before the years of historical memory. we have visited commemorative memorial trostenets, where flowers were laid, an interesting excursion and so many emotions. she aroused our compatriots, because indeed the belarusian people suffered

greatly during the great patriotic war, they know about it and, even being that's what alla probably will tell about it, there is an interesting museum where they talked about the jewish genocide. uh, the population is very many such moments. uh, the first time we took our interns to the world is not fresh, because usually we tried to feed them like this authentic and belarusian culture. we traveled to the regions. naturally, leaving for this creative internship. also, of course, there are in the regions where they meet with grannies carriers, as well as authentic belarusian culture. and where they teach the past, it's dancing. he looks, let's say some old recipes of national belarusian cuisine. well, here they were simply amazed by the beauty of our castles, both the world and nesvizh plunged into this belarusian culture in this direction of our belarusian history, belarusian culture. well of what countries in general in belarus do they come to us and, by the way, the participants of this cultural program, of course, we are with all our belarusians abroad and the republican center for national cultures, you can call me 24/7 day and night to ask any questions and through the ministry of

foreign affairs. there is an advisory council, taking into account the fact that the republican center for national studies is one of its main activities, we are familiar with almost all belarusians. and it really is abroad. that's it what she just said is so important, because it's one thing when we communicate officially, when we correspond there or meet at some official ones directly. here, but the most important thing is to meet. here at such internships, when this informal communication takes place, when we begin to be friends. when we see each other, that is, it is worth a lot and after each trip i can tell you for sure that the plans , uh, are already scheduled for a year and an invitation from other countries. and this is very important and i want to say, that but i came here, and also to the advisory council, and the most important thing is not necessarily to have, uh, these registered public organizations.
