Abchuha (Belarusian: Абчуга, romanized: Abčuha;[2] Russian: Обчуга, romanized: Obchuga) is an agrotown in Krupki District, Minsk Region, Belarus.[2] It is located 140 kilometres (87 mi) northeast of the capital Minsk.[3] It is administratively part of Aktsyabrski selsoviet; it previously served as the administrative center of Abchuha selsoviet before it was abolished in 2013.[4] In 2010, it had a population of 180.[1]

History

In 1923, there were 272 Jews living there, mostly in the center of the town.[3]

World War II

During World War II, it was under German military occupation from early July 1941 until June 1944.[3]

It is not known exactly when a ghetto was created, but this was at some point before the summer of 1942 when the Jews were placed in ten houses.[3] On 5 May 1942, the Germans and local police surrounded the ghetto and shot most of the 440 Jews.[3] The survivors of the shooting were later shot in June.[3]

Following the war, the status of the settlement was downgraded from town to village due to the significant population loss.[3]
