  • Lithuanian Jews and the Holocaust
    Ezra’s Archives | 77 Strategies of Survival: Lithuanian Jews and the Holocaust Taly Matiteyahu On the eve of World War II, Lithuanian Jewry numbered approximately 220,000. In June 1941, the war between Germany and the Soviet Union began. Within days, Germany had occupied the entirety of Lithuania. By the end of 1941, only about 43,500 Lithuanian Jews (19.7 percent of the prewar population) remained alive, the majority of whom were kept in four ghettos (Vilnius, Kaunas, Siauliai, Svencionys). Of these 43,500 Jews, approximately 13,000 survived the war. Ultimately, it is estimated that 94 percent of Lithuanian Jewry died during the Holocaust, a percentage higher than in any other occupied Eastern European country.1 Stories of Lithuanian towns and the manner in which Lithuanian Jews responded to the genocide have been overlooked as the perpetrator- focused version of history examines only the consequences of the Holocaust. Through a study utilizing both historical analysis and testimonial information, I seek to reconstruct the histories of Lithuanian Jewish communities of smaller towns to further understand the survival strategies of their inhabitants. I examined a variety of sources, ranging from scholarly studies to government-issued pamphlets, written testimonies and video testimonials. My project centers on a collection of 1 Population estimates for Lithuanian Jews range from 200,000 to 250,000, percentages of those killed during Nazi occupation range from 90 percent to 95 percent, and approximations of the number of survivors range from 8,000 to 20,000. Here I use estimates provided by Dov Levin, a prominent international scholar of Eastern European Jewish history, in the Introduction to Preserving Our Litvak Heritage: A History of 31 Jewish Communities in Lithuania.

  • Management of Municipal Real Estate
    PUBLIC AUDIT REPORT Summary Report of the Results of Audits of Municipal Control and Audit Services MANAGEMENT OF MUNICIPAL REAL ESTATE 16 November 2020 No. YE-9 SUMMARY Relevance of the Summary In 2018, the National Audit Office of Lithuania (NAOL) carried out an audit of the state real estate management1, during which it was found that the management of state real estate does not generate adequate benefits, poorly linked to efficiency, and there are no long- term real estate management guidelines. In 2019, having assessed that the municipalities in the country may face similar problems, the NAOL invited municipal control and audit services to carry out a coordinated audit of the real estate managed by municipalities, the aim of which was to assess whether real estate is managed in municipalities in a targeted and complex manner, whether it is used efficiently and serve the greatest benefit to the public. The coordinated audit was joined and carried out by 55 out of 60 municipal control and audit services 2. Municipal control and audit services (hereinafter SKATs) assessed the management of real estate held by municipalities by the right of ownership, while the NAOL assessed the management of the state-owned real estate transferred to municipalities by the right of trust. The results of the audit carried out by the NAOL are 1 Public Audit Report “The Management of State Real Estate”, 24/01/2018 No. VA-2018-P-60-8-1. 2Akmenė district, Alytus city, Alytus district, Anykščiai district, Birštonas, Biržai district, Druskininkai, Elektrėnai,

Not only Jews, but all the categories of population, including even nobility, needed internal passports for traveling, and these also might have been different. In 1915, during World War I, the majority of Jews living in Lithuania were forced by the Russians to go deep into the interior of Russia. After the war ended, Lithuania became an independent country, and many Jews returned. Almost 100% of them came from Russia through the Obeliai frontier station, where they obtained a temporary document to cross the border.
