Town in the Vinnytsia region where Jews held the market and trades, Illintsi sees its community registered and then taken in groups to a nearby ravine, with shootings repeating throughout the spring.
Illintsi, in Podolia, saw its community locked up and then led in groups to pits dug in the surrounding area. The raids repeated over the course of months, striking now the able-bodied men, now entire families, until the town was emptied of its Jewish inhabitants.
