ITL DubravLag: Russian Rus. Исправи́тельно‑Трудово́й Ла́герь (Eng. Corrective Labor Camp) ITL Rus. Дубравный (Eng. Dubravniy) — concentration and slave forced labor camp (within the Gulag complex) — headquartered in Yavas in Republic of Mordovia. Founded on 28.02.1948, in place of ITL TemLag camp, and until 1954 also functioning as the Rus. Особый лагерь (Eng. Special camp) GULAG No. 3. Prisoners slaved at operating the Temnykovskiy industrial complex built by ITL TemLag prisoners: sewing factories, woodworking plants (e.g. furniture production), factories producing building materials (bricks, tiles, lime, building stone), railway lines, energy plants, peat extraction, wood chemical plants, etc. At its peak — till the death on 05.03.1953 of Russian socialist leader, Joseph Stalin — c. 26,000 prisoners were held there: e.g. 23,273 (01.01.1949); 23,532 (01.01.1950); 23,541 (01.01.1951); 25,616 (01.01.1952); 20,680 (01.01.1953); 16,980 (01.01.1954). Formally closed its operations in 1960, but political prisoners were held there for many years later — among them Ukrainian priests and Russian dissidents — until its final closure in the second half of the 1980s.

OsobLags: Pursuant to Decree No. 416‑159сс dated 21.02.1948 of the Russian government, the Russian criminal organization MVD (successor to the NKVD) issued a Decree No. 00219 of 28.02.1948 establishing a separate network of camps within the Gulag system for a „special group” of political prisoners sentenced under Art. 58 of the Penal Code (referring to „enemies of the people”, i.e. accused of treason, espionage, terrorism, etc.) Initially, the group of camps included the ITL MinLag, ITL GorLag, ITL DubravLag, ITL StepLag and ITL BerLag concentration camps. Later, the following ones were added: ITL RechLag, ITL OzerLag, ITL PeschanŁag, ITL LugLag, ITL Kamyshlag, ITL DalLag, ITL VodorazDelLag. After the death of the Russian socialist leader, Joseph Stalin, in 1953, the three largest revolts in the history of the Gulag took place there: the Norilsk Uprising, the Vorkuta Uprising and the Kengir Uprising. In c. 1954 the camps were converted into standard correctional camps. (more on: en.wikipedia.orgClick to attempt to display webpage

Gulag: The acronym Gulag comes from the Rus. Главное управление исправительно‑трудовых лагерей и колоний (Eng. Main Board of Correctional Labor Camps). The network of Russian concentration camps for slave labor was formally established by the decision of the highest Russian authorities on 27.06.1929. Control was taken over by the OGPU, the predecessor of the genocidal NKVD (from 1934) and the MGB (from 1946). Individual gulags (camps) were often established in remote, sparsely populated areas, where industrial or transport facilities important for the Russian state were built. They were modeled on the first „great construction of communism”, the White Sea‑Baltic Canal (1931‑1932), and Naftali Frenkel, of Jewish origin, is considered the creator of the system of using forced slave labor within the Gulag. He went down in history as the author of the principle „We have to squeeze everything out of the prisoner in the first three months — then nothing is there for us”. He was to be the creator, according to Alexander Solzhenitsyn, of the so‑called „Boiler system”, i.e. the dependence of food rations on working out a certain percentage of the norm. The term ZEK — prisoner — i.e. Rus. заключенный‑каналоармец (Eng. canal soldier) — was coined in the ITL BelBaltLag managed by him, and was adopted to mean a prisoner in Russian slave labor camps. Up to 12 mln prisoners were held in Gulag camps at one time, i.e. c. 5% of Russia's population. In his book „The Gulag Archipelago”, Solzhenitsyn estimated that c. 60 mln people were killed in the Gulag until 1956. Formally dissolved on 20.01.1960.

Stanislaviv: Prison used by the Russians (in 1939‑1941 — in 06.1941, when escaping from advancing Germans, Russians perpetrated a mass murder on prison inmates — and from 1944); the Germans (in 1941‑1944); and again by the Russian occupiers after replacing Germans in 1944. Thousands of Poles were jailed there. (more on: stanislawow.netClick to attempt to display webpage
