Dugin, Itzhak

Itzhak Dugin, a Jew from Vilnius, was interviewed by Claude Lanzmann for his documentary Shoah sometime in the early 1980s, together with Matvey Zaydel. They both testified about their alleged experiences during the war, when they claim to have been forced to exhume and burn corpses from mass graves near a Vilnius suburb called Ponary. For an analysis of their story, see the entry on Matvey Zaydel.
