City in the Ros valley where the community was ancient and numerous, Boguslav sees its Jews summoned under the pretext of a census, led out of the city and shot at the edge of pre-dug pits.
Boguslav, on the Ros, had been in the nineteenth century one of the most populous communities in the Kiev region and still kept its houses of study and its craftsmen. In the autumn, the Jews who had been unable to flee eastward are gathered on the orders of the occupier, led out of the city, and shot in a ravine.
