Pidvolochysk

Around 1910 Pidvolochysk, the town - like the rest of the then Austrian Galicia - was part of the Austro-Hungarian Empire. Before World War II, a majority of the inhabitants were Jewish.[2] In July 1941, Germans created a labor camp for the Jews. In 1942 part of the prisoners were transported to Zbaraż and Kamionka.[3] In October 1942 the transport was sent to Bełżec extermination camp. The final annihilation of those who were left, took place during the liquidation of the camp on the 29th of June 1943.[4]

The Podwolocyska Organization was headed by Bernard Lerner (d.1988)[5] (later headed by Borekh Goldshteyn.[6]) who published an account of WWII era [7][8]

It was also the birthplace (1910) of fringe Israel Scheib (later Eldad), radical nationalist Israeli politician and a leader of the anti-British Lehi underground organization.
