20 Historical Research Information Stelae The Jews of Kysylyn, Група євреїв із Кисилина, включно з батьком і дядьком вцілілої під час Голокосту Гелен Перел (уроджена Хая Філлер), під час Першої світової війни. A group of Kysylyn Jews, including the father and uncle of the Holocaust survivor Helen Perel, born Chaya Filler, during the First World War. קבוצה של יהודי קיסיילין הכוללת את אביה ודודה של ניצולת השואה הלן פרל, נולדה חיה פילר, במהלך מלחמת העולם הראשונה. 2 Гелен Перел, уроджена Хая Філлер (у білому платті), разом із своєю родиною, Holocaust survivor Helen Perel, born Chaya Filler (in white dress), with her family, around ניצולת השואה הלן פרל, נולדה חיה פילר (בשמלה לבנה), עם משפחתה, שנת 1925 לערך. The town of Kysylyn was home to several hundred Jews between 1918 and Despite its small population and remote location, this centuries-old community supported a main synagogue and two Hasidic prayer houses. Zionist groups seeking to prepare Jews for immigration to Palestine were active here. Cultural activities included public lectures and evening courses. Most Jews worked as shopkeepers and market vendors or as craftsmen. To help its members in hard times, the community maintained a free loan society. After the German-Soviet invasion of Poland in September 1939, Kysylyn became part of the Soviet Union. The new authorities curtailed religious practice, banned Zionist activity, and expropriated businesses. The Holocaust in Kysylyn The Wehrmacht captured Kysylyn on June 25, Under German occupation, Jews had to observe a strict curfew, wear identifying armbands (later round, yellow patches), and hand over valuables, including ritual objects. They also had to work as forced laborers in agriculture and forestry. The Germans shot 48 Jews and two Ukrainians on August 19, Three months later, a ghetto was established in Kysylyn. Jewish families from nearby villages were relocated there shortly thereafter. In early August 1942, the Germans had non-jewish residents dig a pit in a field outside town. On August 15, under German and local police supervision, the ghetto inhabitants were driven in trucks to the pit and shot. At least 500 Jews were murdered at this site. Most of those Jews who had fled to the woods before or during the mass shooting were tracked down and killed. The few Jews who evaded the German and local police faced the additional threat of anti-semitism among partisans in the area. Only a handful of Kysylyn s Jews survived the German occupation.

21 Historical Research Inscriptions for Memorial Stones Between 1941 and 1944, Jewish life in Ratne and the surrounding area was eradicated by the German occupiers and their local subordinate authorities. Approximately 1,300 Jews were murdered at this site. May their souls be bound in the bond of everlasting life.
