📅 20 Mei 1942 📍

The Ustaša authorities began mass arrests and deportations of Roma across the Independent State of Croatia to Jasenovac and Stara Gradiška. The Croatian state’s camp system confiscated belongings, split families, and subjected prisoners to hunger, violence, forced labor, and murder. The Council of Europe factsheet attributes this chronology to information supplied by the Jasenovac Memorial Area; it notes that surviving Ustaša records often counted people or railcars rather than recording names.
