The remaining part of the Liepāja Jews were murdered in Šķēde, in the dunes near the Baltic Sea, on December 15, 1941. This was done according to the personal instructions of O. Drechsler, General Commissioner of Latvia. Nearly all Police for the Maintenance of Order in the city were involved in transporting the Jews to the killing site. The platoon of the German SD and the Latvian SD carried out the shooting. The killing was executed in horrible ways. The mothers were made to hold their babies high above their shoulders for one of the shots to aim at the mother, and the other at the child. Altogether 2731 Jews were murdered in Šķēde during three days, źródło: Informacja na stronach MSZ
