In the Sewers of Lvov
“Socha and Wroblewski took greater precautions entering the sewers, using a different manhole each day. ‘Korsarz’ Margulies and Chaskiel Orenbach continued to make quick forays up to the barrack to fetch more material: clothing, another kerosine stove, a bucket for making soup.
They also brought back reports of how the rest of the ghetto was being systematically stripped of every possible durable item that could be carried, pushed or thrown on to the back of a cart. Eiderdowns, beds, blanket...s, tables and chairs, everything. They watched as entire families carried out suitcases filled with loot, while Ukrainian police stood guard.
Meanwhile, Korsarz saw teams of labourers, probably from the Janowska camp, slowly demolishing the empty buildings with their bare hands. It was as though the ghetto was not only being stripped bare, but that all evidence of their existence was being expunged – and it was being carried out in the most callous fashion.MoreLess
