The Nazi Transocean news agency today reported that 10,000 Bulgarian Jews deported to Germany have arrived there. Some will be sent to Poland, while others will be used as slave labor in German cities devastated by Allied bombing and for agricultural work. About 30,000 more Jews will be deported from Bulgaria for the same purposes, the report stated.
At the same time, the Nazi-controlled Lyons radio today reported from Sofia that “the Bulgarian Government has banned Jewish students from schools and universities for the next school year.” The Transocean agency supplemented this report with a dispatch stating that all Jewish students have already been expelled from the Sofia University.
