Dov Bar: Z'ukovsky Felix was an officer who led the slaughter of Jews. The Black Book of Soviet Jewry, by the Soviet authors Iliya Erenburg and Vasili Grossman, describes mass murder in Brona Gora, about 100 km east of Brest:
Following the investigation of the witnesses and according to the data collected in the region of Brest, the committee stated that the mass execution of Soviet citizens in the area of Brona Gora around Smolyarsk in the district of Bereza, was carried out by the Commando people of the ASD and SS.
The book places responsibility for the mass murder on a list of 12 people. The first on the list is Major Rode.
Editor's Notes: Rode: Probably Friedrich Wilhelm Rohde, Polizeistandortführer in Brest-Litovsk, as described in this page, with a similar description here.
