scope and content: Testimony of D. K.. 25 year old yeshiva student in the Kleck yeshiva, resident of Brisk. He describes the heavy bombardment of the German planes, and the incendiaries which destroyed parts of the city, and led to multiple casualties. The Germans occupied Brisk and conscripted both Jews and Poles to forced labor, forced Jews to open stores on the Sabbath, and looted Jewish businesses. They detained many in the city but the detainees were freed when the Russians were about to take over the city. The Russians in their turn detained ethnic Germans in a camp and shot several as spies for the Germans. Protocol No. 124 is an extract from a volume of protocols /statements provided by a group of Polish-Jewish refugee writers and journalists who fled to Vilnius, Lithuania. In 1939 they formed a committee to collect evidence on the condition of the Jews in Poland under Nazi occupation.
