Summary/Abstract: In Ukrainian-Jewish relations, the year 1919 was marked with blood. On the margin of armed conflicts fought by the Ukrainian People’s Republic and widespread banditry, many crimes against Jewish people were committed in its territory. The pogroms took the lives of as many as tens of thousands people. This topic is by far the most controversial fragment of the history of the Ukrainian national revolution of 1914–23.
