In a town in the Rostov Province of Russia, the remains of more than 100 Nazi victims, including more than 60 children, have been solemnly reburied.

The remains of 109 people were found on the site of a former brick factory in the town of Salsk, where there was a concentration camp in 1942 to 1943, reports dont.ru.

Many residents came to the reburial ceremony with their children, to see the true face of the war with their own eyes. The discovery and reburial were part of President Putin’s “No Statute of Limitations” program aimed at revealing the horrors of WWII.

Alexander Borschevsky, Chairman of the Salsk Veterans Organization noted: “The city of Salsk was occupied on July 31, 1942. The fascist fiends and their henchmen ran rampant over the Salsk land for 175 days, during which they committed many crimes.”

It is estimated that the Nazis shot about 3,500 civilians at the camp in Salsk. Several cross necklaces discovered on the spot were handed over to local clergy to be hung on an icon in the Salsk Cathedral, Andrei Kudryakov, head of the search team, told RIA-Novosti.

“When you lift up the remains of a soldier, you understand that this is a warrior who went to defend his homeland, and when you lift up the remains of civilians—women and especially children—you can’t make any sense of it. You hold the remains in your hand, in the palm of your hand—an infant, you can see that it’s a baby,” commented Sergei Kirshenko, the head of a local military-patriotic search club.

The search for remains will continue in the spring.
