On that fateful day, 318 civilians died, of which 60 were children. The little one was only 6 months old. 85 years ago, on the night between October 24 and 25, 1941, the village of Hatzon, Krachevski District, was brutally destroyed by the Nazis. The punitive forces came here to avenge the execution by the Red Army of a German reconnaissance group. To commemorate those events on May 9, 1968, a statue of a grieving mother was installed in the mass grave where 318 people were buried. On October 25, 2011, on the 70th anniversary of the execution of residents, a renewed memorial complex was opened here. Historians call Bryansk Khatzon perhaps one of the first villages where the Nazis completely destroyed the civilian population. In the Bryansk region, dozens of villages and villages repeated the fate of the Belarusian Khatsuni and Khatin.
