The BBC posted a feature today about scores of Hungarians deported to Moldova by the Soviet Union in 1944.
The Soviets deported about 600,000 Hungarians to labor camps after World War II. About 200,000 died in Soviet captivity.
The story says that "most of the Hungarians from Nyiregyhaza [Imedia: a Hungarian town] ended up in a work camp in Baltsi [Imedia: the largest city in Northern Moldova today], those who survived the journey. And there most of them died - of malnutrition, over-work or disease."
