Two weeks ago I published - by courtesy of Peter Elbau (http://bukowina.info/) - at
http://czernowitz.blogspot.com/2011/01/lazar-leibovici-that-sunday-iasi-pogrom.html
the eyewitness testimony of Lazar Leibovici ON “THAT SUNDAY” OF JASSY POGROM JUNE 29, 1941 in Romanian language. Thanks to Anca Dumitru-Sapuna from Bucharest, Romania, who made such an accurate and superb translation into English, we got an frightening and harrowing document on the Iasi Pogrom of June 1941.
"...Our Christian neighbors, whom I considered my friends, came out of their homes with iron bars, hoes, spades and guns and begin to hit us. Dozens of people fell down without the possibility to defend themselves, guilty only of being Jews..."
The report in English language is now available for download at the above mentioned site.
