Abstract

"Šta je zapravo Kladovski transport? Reč je o Jevrejima iz Beča i nekoliko drugih evropskih zemalja koji su u jesen 1939. godine pokušali da se spasu nacističkog terora i da pokušaju da se usele u Palestinu. Njihov problem je bio u tome što je Engleska, pod čijom upravom je bila ter- itorija tadašnje Palestine, ograničila broj dozvola za useljavanje. Zato je ova grupa ljudi, bilo ih je oko hiljadu, krenula bez sertifikta tj. dozvola za useljavanje. Putovanje su organizovale jevrejske omladinske i druge cionističke organizaci- je. Led na Dunavu i druge okolnosti zaus- tavile su putnike koji su krenuli Dunavom da bi preko Crnog mora stigli do Palestine, u Kladovu, na domak rumunske granice. U Kladovu su boravili od kraja 1939. sve do septembra 1940. godine kada su prebačeni u Šabac, na reci Savi. Tu ih je zatekla nemač- ka okupacija i u oktobru 1941. streljani su muškarci zajedno sa šabačkim Ciganima u mestu Zasavica, a žene i deca, koji su pešice oterani u Beograd u februaru 1942. godine, pogušeni su u kamionu s gasom u maju 1942..."

"What is actually Kladovo Transport? In other words, it is a story about Jews from Vienna and several other European countries, who in the fall of 1939 tried to save themselves from Nazi persecution and immigrate to Palestine. However, taking into consideration that England, under whose rule Palestine was, limited the number of immigration certificates, the group of about a thousand Jews started their trip without аnу approval for immigration to Palestine. The voyage was organized by the Jewish Youth and other Zionist organizations. The ice on the Danube river near Kladovo, by the Romanian border, prevented the group from reaching the Black Sea and Palestine. They stayed in Kladovo from the end of 1939 until September 1940, when they were transferred to Šabac, on the river Sava. They were there during the German occupation. The men were ехеcuted together with the Gypsies at the village of Zasavica, and women and children were driven on foot to Belgrade in February 1942, where they were suffocated by gas in Мау 1942..."
