The part of Slovenia annexed by Italy serves as a refuge for Jews from Croatia and Bosnia; after the Italian armistice, the region comes under German control and arrests resume there.
The province of Ljubljana, part of Slovenia annexed by Italy, is home to a small Jewish community, augmented by refugees from Croatia and Central Europe. Italian measures there initially take the form of internment rather than deportation, and several people find a two-year reprieve in Ljubljana. After the Italian capitulation and the arrival of German troops, arrests begin. The Jews of Slovenia, dispersed across several occupation zones, are among the most completely destroyed communities in the region.
