In Romania, the deportation to Transnistria of Roma categorised by the gendarmerie as ‘țiganii nomazi’ [‘nomadic Gypsies’] begins. About 11,500 people are deported under this regime. The deportation takes place on foot and using the deportees’ own vehicles (horse-drawn carts). The transfers continue until mid-August 1942. The deportees will remain in camps in the Golta district until February–March 1944.
