[Cz-L] "That Sunday" - Iasi Pogrom of June 29, 1941

Czernowitzers...

Yesterday we commemorated Hitler's Seizure of Power on 30 January 1933. As one of the consequences out of this historical event, one of the most terrible crimes of the (Romanian) Holocaust was the Iasi Pogrom of June 1941. It was one of the most violent pogroms in Jewish history, launched by governmental forces in the Romanian city of Iaşi against its Jewish population. By courtesy of our fellow member Peter Elbau, I have released an eyewitness testimony, released in the year 1952 in Tel Aviv (in Romanian langauge) by

Lazar Leibovici - "That Sunday" - Iasi Pogrom of June 29, 1941. The complete text is available at my site

http://czernowitz.blogspot.com/2011/01/lazar-leibovici-that-sunday-iasi-pogrom.html

whereby a translation of the testimony to English and/or German would be highly appreciated. But please keep in mind, that this eyewitness report is even more than frightening.
