Execution of Paul Blobel

The video “Execution of Paul Blobel – Brutal Nazi Einsatzgruppen Commander & Orgainzer of Babi Yar Massacre” is provided by the World History YouTube channel, which presents, among others, videos on the two World Wars, Nazi Germany and the Holocaust. This video summarizes the history of the massacre in Babyn Yar. It focuses on the involvement of the chief commander of the Sonderkommando 4A, Paul Blobel, in this crime and explains the cover-up operation “Special Action 1005”.

We suggest presenting an excerpt from the video (min. 10:18 to 14:47) focusing on Paul Blobel. The video continues by discussing his last words, by stopping it, we intend not to give him this space. He was sentenced for his deeds and was not interested in the last words uttered by the victims of the National Socialist’s mass murder – indeed, many of them did not even have the chance to speak “last words”.

 

The video is in English. English subtitles are available which can be automatically translated into various languages, such as German and Ukrainian.
