Several thousand Jews have been deported by the Soviet authorities from the Ukraine and the Baltic states to Siberia during the last few weeks, diplomatic sources reported here today. The deportations started about a month ago, they said.
Similar reports were received here today from Warsaw where Jews received pleas from relatives in the Ukraine to make an effort to bring them to Poland. Many of the deported Jews claim Polish citizenship since they were born in the part of Poland which was taken over by the Soviet Union after World War II.
