Ekaterinoslav experienced successive pogroms in rhythm with the troops that took and retook the city.
The city had already been struck during the two previous waves. What changes here lies in the context: there is no longer a State to which a protest could be addressed, no commission of inquiry, no press to establish the facts. Jewish relief committees and the Red Cross are the only ones that count, and it is to their archives that we owe today the bulk of what is known.
