Genocide in Ponary – the picture of the crime from the account of Kazimierz Sakowicz and Helena Pasierbska / part 1

Summary/Abstract: This article addresses the truth, almost non-existent in the social awareness, about the genocide committed by the Germans and Lithuanians in 1941–1944 in Ponary. The first part of the publication describes the genesis of the Polish-Lithuanian conflict on the eve of World War II, as well as the situation of Poles in the Vilnius region in the months following occupation. On the basis of Diary by Kazimierz Sakowicz and a study by Helena Pasierbska, the author presents an enormous crime, whose victims included approximately 70 thousand Jews and over 20 thousand Poles killed by Lithuanian shaulists.
