This document discusses anti-Semitism and the persecution of Jews in Lithuania during World War II. It notes that before the war, Jews made up 7% of Lithuania's population and had two synagogues in Palanga. However, during the Nazi occupation, special German groups were sent to Lithuania to destroy Jews, communists, and Romani people. Over 90% of Lithuania's Jewish population was killed, including many Jews being shot in a field near Palanga. Some non-Jewish Lithuanians risked their lives to help Jews by providing shelter or adopting Jewish children.
