Compares the Jewish communities of Buchach in Eastern Galicia and Kremenets in Volhyn, with 7,500 and 8,000 Jews respectively, one-third of the towns' populations. Among the towns' non-Jews, both had a Ukrainian majority and a Polish minority, and in the immediate prewar years there was increasing antisemitism, mostly on the part of Ukrainians, who began to murder Jews in both towns just after the Soviet army left in 1941. In Buchach, a ghetto was established only in December 1942, although roundups and mass murders began already in October. There was some Jewish resistance before the ghetto was liquidated in May 1943. Only 65 Jews survived, and later a few hundred returned from the USSR. In Kremenets, a ghetto was established in March 1942. The conditions there were worse than in Buchach for instance, the Jews received very little food. Almost the entire community was killed a few months later, in August. No resistance was offered by the starving Jews, of whom only ca. 20 survived.
