Today marks 82 years since the terrible tragedy of a Belarusian village, which echoed the fate of Khatyn. On the morning of June 19, 1944, the village was surrounded by Nazi invaders. All residents were whisked into Vasily Kukharenok's house on the outskirts and set on fire. Forty-four people died in the blaze: 29 children, 13 women, and two men. The oldest of the victims was 80, and the youngest was two. Of the 29 children, 17 were girls and 12 boys. Of these, 19 were under 10.
