The remains of ten civilians from the community have been reburied at the old cemetery in Borodianka. Among them were a child of about nine, two teenagers of about eighteen and seven adults.
This was reported by Borodianka Settlement Council.
They died on 10 February 1943. German occupiers burned them alive in a barn at 1-A Nova Street. Their names have still not been established.
The original grave lay next to a site where a centre for children with special needs is planned. That proximity does not meet current sanitary rules, so the remains were moved to the old cemetery.
The ceremony was attended by representatives of Borodianka Settlement Council, specialists from the Kyiv company Pamiat i Slava, and members of the public.
The memorial service for the innocent dead was led by Father Dmytro Koshka, rector of the Church of the Nativity of the Mother of God of the Orthodox Church of Ukraine.
The settlement council paid tribute to the civilians whose lives were cut short.
As a reminder, five apartment blocks have already been rebuilt in Borodianka.
