In September 1943, 40 children aged 6 to 13 were delivered to the German officers' hospital in the village of Starotitarovskaya, from whom doctors pumped out blood for transfusion to wounded German officers. As a result of this operation, all the children died. This is just one of the heinous crimes that the commander of the German occupation forces in the Crimea, General Erwin Eneke, and 11 other German officers at the Sevastopol trial were accused of.
