RMF24: Unknown mass grave of Nazi camp prisoners found in Poland

In Poland, researchers have found a previously unknown mass grave of prisoners of a World War II Nazi camp.

According to Polish radio station RMF24, the facility in question is Stalag II D, which held prisoners of war from the Red Army among other inmates.

 

‘A mass grave with the remains of almost 200 prisoners of war was discovered in Stargarde in the West Pomeranian Voivodeship. During World War II, a German prisoner-of-war camp was located here,’ the publication said.

According to researchers, at least 6,000 people died in the Nazi concentration camp. Among them were not only Red Army prisoners, but also residents of the Polish capital, who were sent behind barbed wire after the suppression of the Warsaw Uprising in 1944.

The head of the research team, Professor Andrzej Ossowski, said that the mass grave was created in 1941. Most of the servicemen buried in it are captured Red Army soldiers.

But not only that. Elements of Polish and Belgian uniforms were also found in the grave. Ossovsky admitted that it was unexpected for him the presence of civilian remains in the mass grave.

Earlier, the mass media reported that Serbian President Aleksandar Vucic was outraged that Brussels refused to invite Russian representatives to the anniversary of the liberation of the Nazi death camp Auschwitz to please Ukraine.
