Extraordinary State Commission files, 1944–1945

Files of the Soviet Extraordinary State Commission on the occupiers' crimes: witness interviews, lists of the killed and of those deported to Germany (NARB fond 1569, digital copies from GARF, scans online). The 1944 district is the one with the nearest district seat, so near a district border look at the neighbouring one too.
