Jewish men from Belgrade and the Banat are locked up in former artillery barracks in the city, from where they are taken in groups to firing squad sites in the surrounding area under cover of reprisals.
A camp is opened in Belgrade in the former artillery hangars of Topovske Šupe, where the Jewish men of the city and those recently expelled from the Banat are imprisoned. The detainees are taken away in groups and shot in the surrounding area, in reprisal for resistance actions, according to a quota system established by the occupation command. The Belgrade camp is emptied before the end of the year. The women and children will subsequently be imprisoned on the other side of the Sava.
