The camp of Tarn-et-Garonne delivers its Jewish internees to the convoy heading to Drancy.
The camp at Septfonds, in Tarn-et-Garonne, had received refugees from Spain before serving as an internment camp for foreigners. At the end of summer, it became one of the assembly points for foreign Jews handed over by the unoccupied zone to the occupier. The convoys traveled to Drancy via Toulouse. The camp operated with work detachments dispersed throughout the department, so that several of the men handed over were seized at their worksites.
